my Corsair ram, how do i find which chips its using?

Kazatan · 9 Mar 2007 at 23:50

I have some ram which i wanted to find which chips it is using, although i have come close i have not found it exactly, or rather, i dont know if i have!

I have been searching for two things, the first gives some results the second gives none!

These two things are the two bits of information in the top right of the sticker on my Corsair XMS TwinX ram.

They read:

XMS3205v1.2
0404014

I searched around for the top bit and found some results saying it is Winbond -5 rev or Winbond -6 rev but in each of the places i found this information they also have a different 7 digit number.
What does this 7 digit number mean? and is there any way of knowing what chips are being used in my memory?

thanks in advance

(One other thing, i am selling these and have been asked for the 'revision' is this simply v1.2?)

v1.2 was BH-5 with the timings changed from 2-2-2-5 to 2-3-2-5 for compatability reasons with some chipsets.

Does anything like this exist for Kingston RAM?

gnetx · 12 Mar 2007 at 11:53

This list might give some sort of idea about the info you're looking for:

Edit: ...and the rest of the site is kinda useful too:

Thanks, bloody useful.

I got lucky with a couple of 1GB Kingston Value Ram sticks. both have Hynix D43 Chips and run quite happily 2-3-3-7 T1 @ 230Mhz

Chris Beard · 13 Mar 2007 at 10:16

Which chips are good/bad?

gnetx · 13 Mar 2007 at 12:42

The Micron D9 series are currently considered to be the best DDR2 chips out there... basically look for the memory that has been raved about and then find the chips that are in them from that list!

In the case of Corsair modules, I'd trust these 2 lists:
