On the advice of many I purchased a 2x512 kit of TwinMOS from Newegg... unable to determine from the markings what type it really is. Hoping it's the type that'll overclock like a veritable banshee. Can you help? :)

On the sticker:

P/N: M2G9J16A8ATT9F081CADT
MODEL NO: M2G9J16A-TT
PC3200(CL2.5) 512MB

On the chips:

TwinMOS
0515D
TMD7608F8E50I

Gracias senors.

Thanks! Was hoping Mr. Eclipse (bow) would be the Oracle on this one.


Wee!
 
hehe :D

on the end of the p/n, you'll see CADT. for future reference, here's the list of the various types of ram chips, as per twinmos's labeling. i'll bold the one you have

AADT -Powerchip .13 micron
CADT - Powerchip .11 micron
AA4T - Winbond .13 micron CH-5
1A4T - Winbond .175 micron BH-5

sadly, the powerchip ic's don't oc too well :(
 
Cool.. thanks for the snappy response!

Hopefully I'll be able to get at least a mild overclock out of it (say something on the order of 220 FSB).

Is the problem that they don't take higher voltages well or just crash-0-rama when you push them to higher speeds?
 
they don't take the high voltage like the winbond based chips can. you should definitly be able to get a few mhz out of them, just be careful with giving it an excessive voltage ;)
 
Awesome. It's not like I won't see a ridiculous difference anyhow moving to an A64 from my current pathetic setup. Overclocking is just the icing, per se if you will so to speak.

Where on earth do you find such detailed information w/r/t different chip manufacturers anyhow? Ya sit out front of the foundries and hand out doughnuts?
 
haha, a lot of time an research. i happened upon that information from a guy who posted in XtremeSystems who works for twinmos ;)

and yeah, you'll probably love the new rig
 
Again, thanks for the brilliance pouring forth from you like a veritable fount of knowledge. I shall report back to you with my results... unfortunately I won't be able to give you those results until V E N I C E is released. *sigh* *bang*

Wee!!
 
hahaha, glad i could help out. good luck with it when venice finally shows up :D
 
hahaha. thanks :p

i don't really care, i'm just here to help, if you guys wanna make fun of me too, go ahead :D

Eclipse is a pretty humble and honest dude. Not sure what you're talking about.

To the OP: If you were to get TwinMOS, you should have gone with Speed Premium or the OCZ Value VX. Those are guaranteed to have the CH dies.
 
Oh, I know he is, and he's helped me a few times, just time to start giving him a little guff here and there. :p
 
haha, thanks for backing me up baron. i was just messing anyhow, things don't get serious with me until someone disagrees and doesn't back up their statement :D

..lol!
Anyway,let's keep this on topic, people.
 
Indeed... just giving him some undeserved guff myself. Never been anything but helpful from what I can gather.

Didn't make the distinction between the SP and non-SP when I picked up that kit from The Egg... next time I'll check w/Mr. Eclipse first.

Will still be feeling groovilicious... not only moving from PIII733 to A643000+ but from GF2 MX400 to 6600GT. Tres fantastique, baybee.

Why Eclipse? I'm the damn TwinMOS SP expert, haha.

That's quite an upgrade, though. You'll never be able to stand using that P3 again, let me tell you :D

indeed, i'm more of a micron guy, you get the ch-5 based stuff ;)

It's a deal. Let's do this thing.


Anyways, Twinmos SP will be in stock pretty soon. Today or tomorrow, by Newegg's estimates.

This is why I love TwinMOS SP.

Heh... the *damn* TwinMOS SP expert? Is there a non-damn expert somewhere as well?

Yah... the PIII is going next to the OTHER PIII (which was retired as my g/f's computer) as a 2nd file server and DVD Burner. Will only be usin' 'er via VNC. :)

I guess in the future if I *really * feel the need to OC I can always sell the original pair and pick up some SP... but again, we're just talking about icing on an already-delicious (especially to a starving man) cake.

I wuv u 2 r0bberb4r0n. Tee hee!

The non damn TMSP expert is ashmedai ;)

Well, at least get a 256mb stick for $30 of TMSP400. It will OC higher, and it will run at the settings of the other ram just fine, giving you 1280mb of ram.
 
Is there a list somewhere of what chips are used on what memory?

Just wondering. I have some TwinMOS stuff in the wifes rig (no idea what exactly) and Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2 in mine.
 
already got you covered. check the last 4 digits of the p/n :D
