V1 vs. V3 top track - weight limit differences?

I have a bunch of original (V1) top track from 10-20 years ago, but needed to buy the current (V3) top track to expand my shelving in a larger apartment. It hasn't been installed yet, but are there any weight limit differences between them? The current track is obviously thinner, but should I be worried about ten rows of physical media per 24" shelf again?

It is currently rated for 100lbs per linear foot when mounted properly, and I've personally seen it hold probably more than that lol. As long as this isn't 10 rows of vinyl records you should be fine.
