DDR3 IC thread

 

 

I thought it might be a good idea to compile an online list of popular DDR3 ICs with known information.

Right now it is based mostly on my personal experience but I appreciate any educated contributions.

Before we begin, a couple of words on density:

Density is one of the most important aspects of each individual IC.
It is usually measured in Gbit (gigabit) and represents the size of each memory chip that is on the module.
For example, if a particular IC has 1Gbit density then it takes 8 chips of 128MB (=1Gbit) each to build a 1GB module and 16 chips to build a 2GB module.
Known densities for DDR3 are: 512Mbit, 1Gbit, 2Gbit, 4Gbit. There are no desktop modules with IC density above 4Gbit and never will be.

 

 

Elpida

Note (credit to Don_Dan and ihog6hog)
Elpida chips can wear two types of labelling: full as seen here and partial as seen here.
In case of partial labelling:

• Fifth letter of the code translates into density. A for 1Gbit, V for 2Gbit and X for 4Gbit.
• Seventh letter of the code translates into the second letter in Elpida model. B for BBBG/BBSE, D for BDBG/BDSE and so on.
• Having xxBG or xxSE can be told from ICs having white stripes on IC sides. xxSE have stripes, xxBG don't.

 

 

1Gbit BABG (J1108BABG)



To be found on:
Very old 1333C9 and 1600C9 rated kits.

Benching relevance:
None.

How does it overclock:
Frequency-wise, don't expect more than 850MHz.
800MHz is possible with 7-8-7 to 8-9-8 at 1.65V, depending on luck.

 

 

 

1Gbit BASE (J1108BASE)



To be found on:
Very old 1333C9 and 1600C9 rated kits.
However, some 1600 7-8-7 Ripjaws (Elpida SNs made in 2009-early2010) and Corsair Dominator/GT 1600 7-8-7 (Ver2.1) kits are also based on these.

Benching relevance:
None.

How does it overclock:
Frequency wise, don't expect more than 900MHz.
800MHz is possible with 7-7-7 to 7-8-7 at 1.65V, depending on luck.

 

 

1Gbit BASE "Hyper"



Came in two versions: MNH-E (produced around weeks 0850-0920) and MGH-E (produced around weeks 0920-0945).
The prior had random death issues and was recalled by some of the RAM manufacturers, but if your sticks are still alive today then there is nothing to worry about.

To be found on:
1600 6-6-6, 1866 7-8-7, 2000 7-8-7, 2000 8-8-8, 2133 8-8-8, 2200 8-8-8 and 2250 8-8-8 kits rated for 1.65V.

Benching relevance:
Sockets 775, 1155(SandyBridge), 1156, 1366 and AM3.

How does it overclock:
Given enough voltage (1.65-1.85V), will do 900-1000MHz with 6-6-6 and 1000-1100 7-7-7.
Scales linear from voltage up to 2.0V on air.

Tips:
On Sandy Bridge, some sticks cannot handle (immediate freeze under load) high bandwidth caused by high CPU speeds. Lowering CPU speeds might help with binning.

Binning criteria:
1) Voltage required for stability at 1000MHz 7-8-7. Rule of thumb: good kits will need 1.65V or less.
2) Ability to run tRCD along with the CAS latency (e.g. 6-6-6, 7-7-7) and not one value higher (e.g. 6-7-6, 7-8-7) without additional voltage.

 

 

 

1Gbit BBBG and BBSE (J1108BBBG and J1108BBSE)
OEM codes: EBJ10UE8BBF0 for 1Gb modules, EBJ21UE8BBF0 for 2Gb modules.



BBBG is a relatively rare type of IC, but it seems to be similar to BBSE.

To be found on:
Most 1600 7-7-7, 1866 8-8-8, 2000 9-9-9, 2133 8-9-8, 2133 9-9-9, 2200 9-9-9 kits rated for 1.65V.
Supposedly, Corsair ver2.2 kits.

Benching relevance:
Socket 1155.

How does it overclock:
tCL and tRP: Linear scaling from voltage (i.e. 1000 7-x-7 at 1.60V, 1100 7-x-7 at 1.76V and so on) up to 1.9V on air.
tRCD: Only scales from temperature. Typical limits at normal ambients are ~1150MHz tRCD 9 and ~1260MHz tRCD 10 and scaling is 1.0-1.2MHz per each degree centigrade.
Quality varies a lot, from kits that can't do 1000 7-9-7 (tWCL8) with any voltage to kits that can run 1100 6-9-6-20 (tWCL8) or 1300 8-11-7-22 (tWCL6) at 1.80-1.90V.

Tips:
From my experience, don't like subtimings too loose (Auto settings) and some kits don't like when you overshoot the voltage hoping for extra stability.
Lowering tWCL from 8 to 6 requires voltage bump similar to dropping CAS by one value, i.e. CL8+tWCL6 runs close on voltage to CL7+tWCL8, CL7+tWCL6 runs close on voltage to CL6+tWCL8.

Binning criteria:
1) MHz/volt relation using CL6(tWCL8) and CL7(tWCL8). Good kits should do 1100MHz CL6 under 1.85V and/or 1200MHz CL7 under 1.75V.
2) tRCD limits. Good kits should do 1150MHz+ tRCD 9 and 1275MHz+ tRCD 10 at normal ambients.
3) Ability to take high voltage (1.9V+) at 1300MHz+.

Benching relevance:
None, but can be "fun" under certain circumstances on LGA1155.

How does it overclock:
tCL and tRP: Linear scaling from voltage (i.e. 1000 7-x-7 at 1.60V, 1100 7-x-7 at 1.76V and so on) up to 1.9-2.0V on air.
tRCD: Only scales from temperature. Typical limits at normal ambients are ~1050MHz tRCD 9 and ~1150MHz tRCD 10 and scaling is 1.0-1.2MHz per each degree centigrade.
Quality varies a lot, from kits that can't do 1000 8-9-8 with any voltage to kits that can run 1100 6-9-6-24 or 1300 8-11-7-24 at 1.90V.

Corsair ver5.2

Benching relevance:
None.

How does it overclock:
The only kit I've had wouldn't run 32M at 933MHz with any timings or voltage, but some people managed to validate these ICs above 1400MHz with CL11 on air.

To be found on:
Hynix-based 4GB modules made in 2009 and 2010

Corsair ver5.11.

Benching relevance:
None, but can be seen as a good daily alternative.

How does it overclock:
For fixed CL value, MHz/volt dependancy is just under linear. tRCD and tRP don't scale too well from voltage, 1.35 to 1.75V won't bring you more than 50MHz.
Don't seem to support stability much above 1200MHz even on high-rated mems. tRCD is best kept one value above tRP.
Quality varies, at 1.65V average samples will do 800MHz 7-8-7 and 1066MHz 9-11-10 while top stuff will do 1200MHz 9-11-10.

2Gbit EFR (H5TQ2G83EFR)

Haven't seen these in the wild, but "some say" that these will do 800MHz 8-8-8 at best and will struggle to reach higher speeds.

 

 

 

4Gbit MFR (H5TC4G83MFR and H5TQ4G83MFR)
OEM codes: HMT41GU6MFR8A and HMT41GU6MFR8C for 1.35/1.50V 8Gb modules.



To be found on:
Nearly all 4GB modules rated 2666 11-13-13 and 2800 12-14-14 produced after mid-2013. All 4GB modules rated 2933 and above. All 8GB modules rated 2600 and above.
Some single-sided 4GB and dual-sided 8GB modules rated 2133 10-12-12 and 2400 11-13-13.

Supposedly, Corsair ver5.21

Benching relevance:
None.

To be found on:
Only seen on Kingston 1866 9-10-11 rated modules so far.

Benching relevance:
Has potential to be good for raw frequency results.

How does it overclock:
For fixed CL value, stable frequency scales well from voltage, but not linear. Lowest tRCD and tRP depend mainly on frequency, then voltage: 1.35V to 1.75V can yield around 100MHz for a fixed tRP.
Need tRFC of 300 and above to be able to run high frequencies. Compared to all other ICs, need very high tRP.
Samples of average quality should do 1200MHz 10-12-13, 1300MHz 11-13-14 and 1400MHz 12-14-16.

 

Micron

 

1Gbit D9GTN, D9GTR and D9GTS



Despite what some people say, these are the same IC with different JEDEC bins hence these should overclock the same.

To be found on:
Cellshock kits rated 1600 7-6-5 and 1800 8-7-6.
Corsair ver3.1 modules rated 1.8V and above.
Crucial Ballistix kits rated 1333 6-6-6, 1600 8-8-8 1.8V and 2000 9-9-9.

Some of Mushkin's and OCZ's kits rated for 1600 7-7-x and 1800 8-8-x at 1.8V+.

Benching relevance:
Socket 775.

How does it overclock:
Linear voltage scaling up to ~2.2V on air.
Decent kits will do 900MHz 6-6-5 and 1000MHz 7-6-6 at 2.2V.

Binning criteria:
Voltage required for stability at 800MHz 6-6-5 and 900MHz 7-6-6. Rule of thumb: good kits will need under 2.0V for both.

Have linear voltage scaling up to 2.0-2.2V on air, but above 1.8-1.9V doesn't gain stability.
Don't like CL6 or tight subtimings at all. CL9 doesn't seem to give improvement over CL8.
Decent kits will do 900MHz 7-7-7 and 1000MHz 8-8-8 at 1.8V.

 

 

 

1Gbit D9KPT and D9KPV



To be found on:
Crucial Ballistix 1333 7-7-7 and 1600 8-8-8 modules rated 1.65V.
Corsair 1600 7-7-7 kits rated 1.65V of version 3.1.
Some of OCZ Blade 2000 9-9-9 kits.

To be found on:
Various Micron-based kits from 2010-2011 rated between 1333 9-9-9 and 1600 9-9-9.

To be found on:
Some Crucial Ballistix Elite kits rated 1333 7-7-7, 1600 8-8-8 and 1866 9-9-9.
Some of Kingston's 1600 9-9-9 HyperX made in 2012-2013.

Benching relevance:
None.

How does it overclock:
Overclock best using even single-digit primary timings, scale very well from voltage. 4Gb modules have problems doing above 1066MHz stable.
Quality varies a lot, worst ones won't do 900MHz 8-8-8 or 1000MHz 9-9-9 at any voltage, good stuff will do 900MHz 7-7-7 and 1000MHz 8-8-8 at 1.75V and keep scaling.

 

 

 

4Gbit D9QBJ



To be found on:
Recent Crucial Ballistix kits rated 1600 8-8-8 and 1866 9-9-9.
Corsair's 4GB 2133C8 modules. Possibly on 2133C9, 2400C10 and lower specs as well.

Benching relevance:
None.

How does it overclock:
Overclock best using even single-digit primary timings, scale very well from voltage. 8Gb modules have problems doing above 1200MHz stable.
Seem to perform best when tRCD is equal to CAS or CAS+1 and tRP is between CAS+1 to CAS+3.
Quality varies a lot, best sticks will do 1066MHz 7-8-10 and 1200MHz 8-9-11 at 1.80V and keep scaling.

 

 

2Gbit/4Gbit D9Pxx/Qxx

Micron also has other ICs such as D9PSH, D9QMS but I haven't yet been able to systematise the information.

 

 

Powerchip (PSC)

My personal claim (yet unproven):
Second and third letters might indicate production week. For example, difference between XDS and XDV would be three weeks.
Basis for this would be existence of XB-marked DDR2 modules in early2008, first appearance of XE- in mid2009, XF- in late2009/early2010, TG- in mid2010, TH- in late2010 and so on ... i.e. roughly a 26 week cycle for each second letter.

 

 

 

1Gbit X-series



1Gbit PSC chips, marking of which starts with a letter "X", have identical overclocking properties, so those should be the same.
My guess that the subversions A3G-A (most common), A3G-P (with stripes on sides like on Elpida B_SE) and the like indicate different JEDEC bins.

To be found on:
All 1GB/2GB modules rated 2000 6-9-6, 2133+ CL7, 2300+ CL8 and 2400 9-11-9.
Some Corsair ver7.1 modules.
Some G.Skill 1600 7-8-7 and 1600 8-8-8 rated kits with "PSC serial number" made before approx week 1020.
Some Kingston 1066C7 and 1333C9 valueram procudec between late 2009 and mid-2010.
Mushkin 2GB modules rated 1600 6-8-6 and 2000 7-10-8, also some 2GB modules rated 1600 7-8-7.

Benching relevance:
Sockets 1155, 1150 and 2011.

How does it overclock:
tCL: Linear scaling from voltage (i.e. 1000 7-x-x at 1.50V, 1100 7-x-x at 1.65V and so on) up to 1.90-1.95V on air.
tRCD: Only scales from temperature at around 1.0-1.2MHz per each degree centigrate. Typical limits at normal ambients are 1000-1066MHz tRCD 9, 1150-1200MHz tRCD 10 and 1250-1300MHz tRCD 11.
tRP: Can usually run same value as CAS, but some kits might require it raised by one or two values. This will get worse as memory frequency increases.
tRAS: Base value would be 28 for 1200-1333MHz on air cooling. Might need to be further raised by two values each ~50MHz.
Quality varies, from kits that can do 1300MHz 7-11-7 (tWCL8) under 1.75V to ones that won't do 1200MHz 7-11-10 (tWCL8) with any voltage.

Tips:
Lowering tWCL from 8 to 6 requires voltage bump similar to dropping CAS by one value, i.e. CL8+tWCL6 runs close on voltage to CL7+tWCL8, CL7+tWCL6 runs close on voltage to CL6+tWCL8. Therefore, people usually confuse/underestimate CL7+tWCL6 runs for CL7+tWCL8 runs which are about 15% apart in terms of stable voltage.
When running 1333MHz+ on Haswell, some kits experience so-called frequency-dependant voltage holes. For example, a kit can run settings X at 1.78-1.80V and 1.85V+ all day long but 1.81-1.84 will have severe stability issues for no apparent reason.

Binning criteria:
1) MHz/volt relation using CL6(tWCL8) and CL7(tWCL8). Interesting kits start from under 1.7V for 1200MHz CL7. Good kits start from under 1.65V for 1200MHz CL7 and under 1.85V for 1200MHz CL6. To put things into perspective, 1.65V for 1200MHz CL7 tWCL8 with linear scaling would imply ~1.83V for 1333MHz CL7 tWCL8 so same kit should be expected to run 1333MHz CL8 tWCL6 with moderately tight subtimings around 1.85V.
2) tRCD limits. Good kits can at least boot 1200MHz tRCD 10 and 1300MHz tRCD 11 at normal ambients.
3) Capability of running tRP same as CL throughout the whole stable frequency range between 1100 and 1350MHz.

 

 

 

1Gbit R-series and T-series



1Gbit PSC chips, marking of which starts with a letter "T", have identical overclocking properties, so those should be the same.
My guess that the subversions A3G-A (most common), A3G-P (with stripes on sides like on Elpida B_SE) and the like indicate different JEDEC bins.

To be found on:
Some G.Skill 2GB modules rated 1600 6-8-6, 1600 7-8-7, 1600 8-8-8 modules with "PSC serial number" produced after week 1020.
Some G.Skill 2GB modules rated 2133 9-11-9 and 2200 9-11-9.
Some Kingston 1066C7 and 1333C9 valueram modules made from mid to late 2010.

Benching relevance:
None.

How does it overclock:
tCL: Linear scaling from voltage (i.e. 1000 8-x-x at 1.60V, 1100 8-x-x at 1.76V and so on) up to about 1.9V on air.
tRCD: Only scales from temperature. Typical limits are around 100MHz or roughly one value lower than for X-series.
tRP: Can usually run same value as CAS, but some kits might require it raised by one or two values. This will get worse as memory frequency increases.
tRAS: Base value would be 28 for ~1200. Running higher frequencies (when possible) will need a further increase.

 

 

2Gbit

2Gbit chips from Powerchip have similar markings, but I haven't yet figured out any systematic difference between 2Gbit ones starting with R,T or X.

To be found on:
G.Skill 4GB modules with "PSC serial number".
Some Kingston valueram modules made between early 2011 and late 2012.

Benching relevance:
None.

How does it overclock:
Don't seem to scale from voltage at all. Best you could expect would be 800MHz 9-8-7 and 933MHz 10-9-8.

 

 

 

4Gbit

4Gbit chips from Powerchip have similar markings, but I haven't yet figured out any systematic difference between 2Gbit ones starting with R,T or X.

Samsung

Common mistake:
Many people identify Samsung ICs by their spec.codes, like "HCF0" for 1Gbit D-rev or "HCH9" for 2Gbit D-rev.
In reality, the spec.code only indicates JEDEC specs of a particular model of a particular version.

Figuring out G.Skill's SNs

I thought it was about time to make a complete list of all the different codes G.Skill uses to mark different ICs and their manufacturers. A lot of valuable info is scattered over many different threads, I tried to collect as much info as I could, please feel free to add more numbers or dispute what I wrote!

Let's start:

G.Skill serial numbers always start with the year and week, for example 913 is the 13th week of 2009 while 1240 is the 40th week of 2012. Pretty straightforward.

After that there are four digits which stand for different ICs/manufacturers:

0000

- Review/Test sample (no IC specified)

01xx

- Micron

DDR:

DDR2:

DDR3: 0140/0150/0160

02xx

- Hynix

DDR: 0200

DDR2: 0230

DDR3: 0240/0260

03xx

- Samsung

DDR:

DDR2:

DDR3: 0340/0360

06xx

- Elpida

DDR:

DDR2:

DDR3: 0640

DDR3: 0650/0660 BBSE

DDR3: 0690 MxH-E Hyper (small chance of BBSE/EBSE)

07xx

- Elixir (/Nanya)

DDR:

DDR2:

DDR3: 0740

08xx

- Nanya (sometimes eTT/uTT)

DDR: 0800

DDR2: 0830

DDR3: 0840/0860

09xx

- PSC eTT/uTT

DDR:

DDR2: 0901/0930

DDR3: 0940

10xx

- Powerchip/PSC

DDR:

DDR2: 1020/1030

DDR3: 1040

11xx

- SpecTek (/Micron)

DDR:

DDR2:

DDR3: 1120/1140

12xx

- Qimonda/Aeneon (sometimes eTT/uTT)

DDR:

DDR2: 1230/1250

DDR3: 1240/1260

13xx

- ProMOS? (possibly blank IC)

DDR:

DDR2:

DDR3: 1340

The last two digits of the serial numbers indicate the speed bin originally assigned by the IC manufacturer:

xx00 = DDR-333 2.5-3-3

xx01 = DDR2-533 ?-?-?

xx20 = DDR2-667 ?-?-? / DDR3-1066 7-7-7

xx30 = DDR2-800 5-5-5

xx40 = DDR3-1333 9-9-9

xx50 = ???

xx60 = DDR3-1600 11-11-11

xx90 = DDR3-2133 12-12-12

Since April 2012 G.Skill is using new numbers:

AB40

- Samsung/Hynix (seems to be both, only used for a short time)

000x

- Hynix (only on samples?)

0000

x10x

- Nanya eTT/uTT

DDR2:

DDR3: 2100

x15x

- ??? eTT/uTT

DDR2:

DDR3: 2150

x20x

- Powerchip/PSC (sometimes eTT/uTT)

DDR2: 9200

DDR3: 1200

x30x

- Micron

DDR2:

DDR3:

DDR4: 3300

x40x

- Hynix

DDR2: 8400

DDR3: 1400/140H/2400

DDR4: 3400/A400

x50x

- Samsung

DDR2:

DDR3: 1500/2500/250B

DDR4: 3500/A500

x60x

- SpecTek (/Micron)

DDR2:

DDR3: 1600

DDR4:

x80x

- Elpida

DDR2:

DDR3: 0800/1800/2800

DDR3: 3800 MxH-E Hyper

The first digit of the new serial numbers indicates the speed bin originally assigned by the IC manufacturer:

0xxx = DDR3-1066 7-7-7

1xxx = DDR3-1333 9-9-9

2xxx = DDR3-1600 11-11-11

3xxx = DDR3-2133 12-12-12 / DDR4-2133 15-15-15

Axxx = DDR4-2400 17-17-17

8xxx = DDR2-667 5-5-5

9xxx = DDR2-800 5-5-5

These four digits are followed by six more digits which seem to be consecutive numbers assigned to each kit.

This is it for now!

If you know what is under the spreader of a particular product then you can better determine if that product will fit your particular needs.

Unfortunately, there isn't a single place that we can go to find out what memory chips are being used on a particular product so you have to know how to read module labels, or look at other available information in order to make an educated guess. Since I’m often asked where I go to get information I decided to make this thread and list my sources & methods for guessing.

In addition, I would encourage other members to chime in and augment this list with their sources. I know that here on OCF there is a large group of guys / gals that already have a pretty good handle on this stuff so by collaborating we ought to be able to put something together that would be worthwhile and in turn would benefit those members that have not had the opportunity to learn how to gather this info.

 

Most of these links are for DDR3, although the ram list below also covers DDR & DDR2. I personally haven’t moved into DDR4 so others will have to have to take the lead with the newest stuff.


Enough with the introductions, let’s get started.

One of the best places to start is linked below. You can find info on DDR1-DDR3, by manufacturer. Note that often the same memory chips are being used by the different manufacturers at around the same time so if a specific brand/model isn't listed, look for one with similar speeds/timings/voltage from the other guys and you can probably figure out what's under the lid of the kit that you are interested in.

G.Skill:
The best source that I’m aware of for coding information included in the G.Skill Serial Numbers can be found here:

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?283666-Figuring-out-G-Skill-s-SNs

Below is a related post that I made responding to information that was posted by member Sam OCX at OCN (known elsewhere as TaPaKaH). It discusses how to differentiate between the DDR3-1333 and DDR3-1600 rated versions of ICs and is also useful in distinguishing between ICs on single-sided vs double-sided modules. The actual posts are copied below.

First is a copy of the post made by TaPaKaH (as Sam OCX) in the OCN Ram Addict Thread recapping GSkill’s distinction between DDR3-1333 and DDR3-1600 rated chips

“My current guess is that 1400/1500 means that ICs have 1333 9-9-9 JEDEC bin and 2400/2500 is they have 1600 11-11-11 JEDEC bin. Either way, these are clearly dual-sided (looking at the caps) so must be CFR ... now luke, tell us how these clock
By the way, "4GTXD" in SPD is not special - if you look back all the way up to DDR1 - GSKill use module capacity rather than kit capacity there.”

Then my follow up comments:

“That's an interesting take and you may be right. That would fit the pattern with Samsung, as well. The HCH9, a 1333 part was being shipped with the S/N "1500" in those 2400 C9 kits and the HYK0, a 1600 bin was being shipped with the "2500" S/N.

Following that logic then, a 2x8GB kit of Hynix based MFR PBC would have a S/N with a "2400" in it, but one made using the older MFR H9C (if used) would sport a "1400". Would you agree?

http://www.hynix.com/products/comput...=computingDDR3

Over at XS there was a pic posted of the ICs of one of these 2666 C11 kits with the "1400" and it was in fact CFR H9C (a 1333 part if I'm reading the info from the Hynix site correctly).

http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...=1#post5153644

Therefore, a 2x4 double sided kit with Hynix timings and sporting the "2400" number should be expected to be using CFR PBC...a 1600 bin part?

http://www.hynix.com/products/comput...=computingDDR3

So if you know whether it is a single-sided, or a double-sided module, then based on whether you are looking at a 2x4GB kit, or a 2x8GB kit and whether it has the 1400/2400 for Hynix or the 1500/2500 for Samsung, you have a pretty good chance of guessing what is under the hood.

Does this look right?

For 4GB modules:
single-sided 1400 = MFR H9C (1333 part)
double-sided 1400 = CFR H9C (1333 part)
double-sided 2400 = CFR PBC (1600 part)

single-sided 1500 = the Samsung 4Gbit HCH9 (1333 part)
double-sided 1500 = the Samsung 2Gbit HCH9 (1333 part)
double-sided 2500 = HYK0 (1600 part)

for 8GB modules:
double-sided 1400 = MFR H9C (1333 part)
double-sided 2400 = MFR PBC (1600 part)

double-sided 1500 = the Samsung 4Gbit HCH9 (1333 part)
double-sided 2500 = ??? (I don't know it)

There is also a Hynix AFR that I've gotten on some generic 8GB modules and it is like MFR so it is possible to get these instead of MFR.

http://www.hynix.com/products/comput...=computingDDR3

There are also some Samsung variants to HCH9 that have popped up from time to time, so there are no guarantees, but generally speaking, most Hynix based stufft these days seems to be either CFR or MFR, and most Samsung would be either HCH9 (2Gbit or 4Gbit) or HYK0.”

BTW, that Ram Addict Club / Gallery thread linked above is also a great source of info...you just have to pull it out in bits & pieces.


Corsair:
Corsair uses the "verx.xx" number on their module labels to identify the IC used. I’ll elaborate on this with some examples in the near future.

Kingston:
Coding info on the labels...this info is also a partial quote from TaPaKaH which was posted on XS.

“Basic technique goes as follows: vertical code on the stickers.
symbol 4 is IC maker: E for Elpida, H for Hynix, M for Micron, N for Nanya, S for Samsung, K for random.
symbols 5-6 are # of ICs: 08 is single-sided, 16 is dual-sided.
symbol 7 is production month: 1-9, A, B, C.
symbols 8-9 is production year.”

General Info:
Some very useful information in another thread started by TaPaKaH over at XS which is loaded with detail about the various DDR3 memory chips and includes overclocking attributes about many of them:

That’s all I’ve got for now. Please feel free to add your own sources or insight on how you identify the memory in your modules. Please note that this thread isn't intended as a list of what current or past products have what chips, but instead as a "how to" read the labels and use other available information to identify the actual chips, or most likely chips being used in a module.
