ID'ing Memory Chips on HyperX

**thebove** · 12-30-2003, 06:13 PM

i've got a couple 512 sticks of HyperX 3000 that i purchased a while back (maybe pushing a year or so now), and i'm trying to figure out what kind of chips are on these sticks. The spreaders look to be a real pain to get off, so i was wondering if there's any other way to find out what chips are on these sticks. the numbers on the sticker attached to the heat spreaders are:

KHX3000/512
9905200-018.A00
1122194 - 2.5v

also if it helps, i believe the timings these sticks were rated to run at pc3000 speeds were 2-3-3-7

**The Stilt** · 12-30-2003, 06:18 PM

They SHOULD be with Kingston D328DW - 50 chips aka Winbond BH-5. Most of KHX3000 sticks comes with rebadged BH-5 chips, cause they are rated 2-2-2-6. Thou once I had one KHX3000 256MB stick with Kingston D328DW - 45 chips, which were definately rebaded CH-5 chips. That stick wouldnt even post at 200FSB 2-2-2-5 3.2V

A00=BH5

sweet

time to pull this bufftech ch-5 and see what i can really do with this nf7-s

any timings/voltages you guys might suggest? i'm running air cooled, (SLK-947U w/thermaltake 56cfm 92mm) in a kinda warm room, but right now the barton's only at 1.75v, so i know it's got some legs left. (it's a locked one, haven't tried the recently discovered trick yet...)

A00 is either or (BH-5 or CH-5). Kingston does not use A## product coding for identification of the chip used. You need to check under the heatspreader to identify, for sure, the chips in used (whether they are labled BH-5 or reprinted by Kingston).

sorry but i have to disagree. They dont use AXX for identifie what chip it is, but for the time its made. A00=BH5, A01=CH5 and they have more, its was only a exemp

ATM I´ve got:

Four KHX3000 256MB "A00" = Kingston D328DW - 50 aka BH-5
Four KHX3200 512MB "A01" = "340WF" BH-5
Twenty KHX3200 256MB "A02" = "339WF" BH-5

So that isnt true.

**Soulburner** · 12-31-2003, 03:09 AM

My 339's were bought from newegg a month or two ago, so they are some of the newest stuff you can get.

They say A02, made in USA.

**nailbomb** · 12-31-2003, 03:11 AM

I'm confused, does that mean that BH5 is back in production?

**wierdAl** · 12-31-2003, 03:16 AM

the stilt: cold you send some of that bh-5 my way

, i just realized that ch-5 really sucks,...

Nope, you can still buy several branded BH-5 sticks if you can find em

I think that the 340WF chips, were the last BH-5 batch that ever made.

wierdAl: I can send you some, if the price is right

Or you can order some KHX3200 (without A) yourself

**nailbomb** · 12-31-2003, 03:41 AM

Hrm, interesting.

What are they using on their PC4000, Hynix?

**Kalway** · 12-31-2003, 08:43 AM

I think mine are 0319 or 0309... wanna tell me what's on those? I bought em back in march... They're really voltage picky. Too much = extreme instability, too little = POST not finish

**coZmic** · 12-31-2003, 09:09 AM

maybe some of you can help me here:

You got it.

**wierdAl** · 12-31-2003, 02:31 PM

The Stilt: i live in a country that doesn't have any good memory for sale anywhere, and i cant order of e-bay or similar websites, becouse the delivery service would probably take months and i just can't wait that long, so i just "hang around" the local computer stores in hope that they might come to their senses and order some decent ram like mushkin or ocz, or even hyper-x,... i need something that can do anything over 200 at decent timings, but that's not gonna happen so i'm thinking of buyin' some geil rams and see how they are, unless of course you have a better option....

( that was my way of asking what would be a good offer

)

Holy goats Bat Man...wth are you doing with all that ram? Spread the wealth bro. Sell some of it here.

I had A00=BH5, A02=BH5, and A00=CH5....so the A** doesnt mean a thing unfortunately.

**thebove** · 12-31-2003, 05:13 PM

ok, whats goin on guys....i can't seem to even hit 205fsb @ 2.5-3-3-11 completely stable with this hyperx 3000.....i've had it up and running in windows at 215 on 2.5-3-3-11 timings, but it errors in folding@home every now and then (vcore makes no diff, i could jack it to the sky and it still errors now and then), and when i run memtest86, i keep getting errors at the end of test 5

if i bring the speeds back down to, say, 200 and crank the timings to 2-2-2-11, i'm fine all the way through memtest, go figure...

i'm running BIOS 20 on my nf7-s v2.0, 2.9vdimm, 1.7vdd, with a post week 39 barton 2500 (AQYHA 0348 XPMW Z375907L30343)

anyone got any ideas?

**benonmsn** · 12-31-2003, 05:20 PM

what multi "theabove".. i have 2 xp2500's that error out at 205x11 but run great at 230x10

**Sovereignty** · 12-31-2003, 05:21 PM

My KHX3000 runs 200 2-2-2-6 @ 2.7v. You might be giving it too much.

no A....thebove

but anyways....it's multi 11, like i mentioned it's a post week 39, and i haven't looked much into recent unlocking discovery, because it seems as of right now there are a lot of mixed results

i'm backing down on the vdimm right now, gonna try 2-3-3-11 @ 2.7vdd (doesn't this board overvolt a little anyway?)

**Sovereignty** · 12-31-2003, 05:32 PM

Yeah it does overvolt. @ 2.9v in bios it was getting about 3v.

If that doesnt work I'd try running a divider and clock the ram way down to see how far the CPU will go, and see if that's the problem instead.

What recent unlocking discovery? I haven't seen anything on it, but then again I live under a rock.

This discovery

205fsb, 2-3-3-11, 2.7vdd is a no go

guess i'll mess with the dividers, see what the heck's goin on....sadly, i'd have to think right now that it is the chip, because my buffalo won't run for crap either....

**kakaroto** · 01-11-2004, 05:54 AM

I can get this kind of memory from KHX:

KHX3200/256
9905192-012.A01
1266690 - 2.6 V
Assy in USA

This is BH-5 right?

**skate2snow** · 01-11-2004, 06:45 AM

yup, its A01...JK, now i know its not true(and sorry for that).

seriously, yes, its some BH5(NON A) so that meen its BH5, KHX take that codename to say its older.

Please note: The codename A, NON A, are only use for KHX PC3200
