PSC based memory list

[Ket]

This is something which will hopefully grow into a useful list for people. Basically, ANY memory you know to be PSC based (doesn't need to have fancy names like Ripjaw or Dominator) tell us and I'll add it to the list. If you have OCd the particular PSC based memory you mention, say what you got it to do and I'll add that info as well for reference.

2150 8-10-8-24 1.62v

Added. I'll see about trying to take the heatsinks off my Ripjaws and see what ICs they use, their probably PSC as well with timings of 7-8-7-24.

[Don_Dan]

This post might be useful...

Once Ronald adds these kits to the list everything can be found here.

[Ket]

Awesome

nice thread ket
does anybody know more about psc?
its obviously licensed elpida 2G ddr3, but i wonder what node its made on since the chips are much smaller
elpida wasnt on 40nm yet, as far as i know... or did they later switch to 40nm and kept the same package size for some reason?
psc seems to be 40nm... does anybody know more?

oh and ket, if you can, get some voltage figures as well... im curious what people are running their psc at, ive heard its way more whimpy when faced with high volts than elpida?

1600 6-8-6-21,6-9-6-24, 7-9-7-24,
2000 6-9-6-24,7-10-10-24,7-9-7-24
2200 7-10-10-24
2300 8-11-8-24
2400 9-11-9-27/28
2533 9-11-9-27/28

Is this list accurate? I think Ive seens some cheapo brands carrying these timings. Will the quality be similar?

[Ket]

If that info is accurate, cheapo memory carrying PSC ICs is probably going to be very low binned stuff. Eg; No-name PC10600 kit may be able to reach 1600 but probably with pretty crappy timings of 9-9-9

From what I've read, PSC modules are good for anywhere between 1.5-1.75v. For daily usage 1.65-1.7v is probably their max.

[cstkl1]

well quite fairly accurate except hmm for the GTX3 vs GTX1

GTX1 is rev 7.1 ( missing "a")
GTX3 is rev 7.1a ( confirmed PSC)

best priced dual kit.. heck is just a bit more than value ram and comes with
a huge heatsink.

Mach Extreme Armor X - 2200 7-10-10-28/ 2300 8-11-8-28

btw can u like show the link to this cheapo kits. Overall PSC kits are not that expensive except for corsairs.

btw can somebody confirm geil Evo two's as looking at the amd clocks.. eh could be.

[Don_Dan]

Yeah, those MachX are PSC, they are also in my post at i4memory, GEIL Evo Two are PSC as well in my opinion. I haven't seen a picture of them without HS but looking at the specs and results, it should be PSC.

If someone knows where to find PSC chips on value RAM, please post it.

[websmile]

Good thread- I just ordered a couple of dozens GB Ram- if I find some PSC, which I seriously don´t hope, I´ll post it here

[Ket]

Added more modules to the list

[G.Foyle]

G.Skill F3-10666CL7D-4GBECO has Powerchip-manufactured ICs, but I think it's not the usual stuff.

[BeepBeep2]

All of the ECO I have seen so far is PSC based. G*Skill are PSC lovers

Ripjaws:
Red Ripjaws: PSC
Blue Ripjaws: PSC
Black Ripjaws (2x2GB 7-7-7): BBSE

AS far as Corsair goes, anything thats Rev 7.1a is PSC based. "Rev. X.X" tells the IC.

[Don_Dan]

Old Ripjaws and ECOs were BBSE, the new ones are based on PSC.

If anyone has taken the HS off his kit, please post some pics, I'm interested in the different revisions of PSC chips.

[G.Foyle]

Here you go:
G.Skill F3-10666CL7D-4GBECO

[M.Beier]

I dont know if this is the case anymore, but the reason why earlier G.Skill wouldnt announce which IC was being used, was due the fact that they could change it to more cost effecient, and if running out of stock, using other IC to acheive same settings, therefore, you wont have a gurantee that you get a certain type of IC.

[superpyton]

Also Corsair Dominator CMD4GX3M2B1600C8 Rev 7.1 (1600 MHz 8-8-8-24 1,65 V) are based on PSC.

[Ket]

Added a few more kits to the list, keep em comin as you find em guys

[M.Beier]

Good thread? Nah, perfetic and misguiding thread....

Congratulations Ket.... You ignored #18 because you know you got nothing to it with your ideas on this topic, way to go....

[Ket]

Numbers suggest new G.Skill Ripjaw modules use PSC. Until you can provide proof of otherwise two other people by my count would disagree with what you say, so don't get pissy because I'm listening to the majority.

[slaveondope]

I believe my Adata 2000x's are PSC. AX3U2000XB2G9-EF
They do
~1640mhz 67616
~1880mhz 78719
~1960mhz 89822

At 1.63v can't break 2000mhz due to board bios.

Same one's eva2000 reviewed though mine have a thicker heatsink covers.

Im not pissed, I am just saying that you are preaching incorrect shi(f)t, and digg misguiding people, as long as you get publicity from doing so...

And yes; I had qimonda on a pair of RIPJAW myself.... I believe HIWA received the picture of them... They had red heatspreader and were PC12800.... I dont even bother looking for a picture of it on my NAS..
