1.Assuming you have a speed-binned bh-5 module. Does programming it with a different dump remove that 'limit' ?

2. Say from your kit, you have a weaker and stronger stick. I presume copying the one from the better stick into the weaker one does help right ?

3.And let's say that my module does 265Mhz 2-2-2-5. Does programming it with a dump from from a memory that does 275Mhz 2-2-2-5 help in the performance of your ram ? Or is it the IC and PCB that comes into play over limiting the peformance of the ram itself ?

*All these provided that dumping a different type of memory does work on the ram itself.

**Anyway, thanks to Waus-mod ! I'll be trying to get my Corsair Bh-5s up to standard [hopefully] once i get the full rig to test
1. NO

2. NO

3. NO

The answers are as simple as that. The SPD-ROM can't change the limit of the hardware itself. If the chips' limit is, let's say, ~260Mhz, then programming the SPD might change something if it includes weaker timings, but it won't change anything concerning the max. overclock if it doesn't change any timings. The SPD_ROM just includes info about the RAM sticks and the timings it needs, nothing magical about it.
