emissary42 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 The modules look genuine to me and the current kits probably ship without the Link connector because it wasn't used anyways (just a guess). Ver4.xx = Samsung ICs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 when ı opened shipment ram modules doesnt have corsair link connection port. What makes you think it should it have a corsair link connection port? I know some DDR3 DIMMs had this to report the temperature, but I think the DDR4 ones report their temperatures via the SMBus using the standard MTS (Module Thermal Sensors) regime. A typical SPD/MTS chip is http://www.idt.com/products/memory-logic/memory-interface-products/ddr4-solutions/tse2004gb2-ddr4-temp-sensor-spd.

red-ray Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I know that Corsair Link will report CMD32GX4M4A2400C12 via the SMBus which is why I suspect CMD16GX4M2B3200C14 is the same. Do you have the DIMMs in a system? I just found http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?p=888383, the post specifies CMD16GX4M2B3200C14 and the CL4 screen shot shows them being reported. I am 99% sure this is via the SMBus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
