How are you finding the batch numbers without shredding the heat-spreader? Looks fairly securely attached.

james32 · 24 Nov 2006 at 13:06

batch number is on the label on the stick, right beside the timings

You want the CAS4 for guaranteed D9GKX ICs.

the PC6400 will do 1000 @ cas5
you want the cas4 stuff as it's micron D9GKX

This page might be of help

Shows you chips used in different sticks.

That Crucial 10th Anniversary stuff has been getting rave reviews. Not badly priced as well. Uses Micron D9GMH (B6-3) Handpicked - same as Dominator RAM.

Maybe OCUK should get some...

Great thanks for that heads up!

I was looking at that memory the other day . . .

PC5300 Tenth Anniversary 3.0-3-3-12 @ 2.2V

Real nice timings and all, but isn't that vDimm high?

Really interested in this stuff

Big.Wayne · 29 Nov 2006 at 22:56

OcUK does stock Cellshock memory and has done for approx a week now.

Gibbo if you've opened any packs in store, and anyone else who's bought the PC6400 kit from OcUK only - can you state which batch you received? (it's the long random looking number on the sticker on the heatspreader).

(Actually, will make a separate thread for this, as it'll likely be lost in here, what with the Crucial 10th Anniv. talk)

If you ask extra nice maybe they will come round your house too and let you test them !

Indeed, though I'm not asking them to open a pack just to find out, just as to whether they may have done so to test out for themselves etc.
