raven49 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Version number has nothing to do with when the modules were assembled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Correct raven49. As per the IC list on the left, version numbers indicate which IC manufacturer was used. The date of production is the first 4 digits in the lot number. The first 2 digits are the year, the next 2 are the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoti72 Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 lot 110903165.....it´s 1,5 year old....****......i´ll never buy more parts from this dealer.....i think the newer chips are easilier to overclock.....damn...i am really pissed.. oops.....brain was to slow to get it....1109, menas it is pretty new !!......am i right ??

Wired Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 2011, 9th week = first week of March. Memory's 3 or so weeks old. The age of the memory has no relation on their overclocking capability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJLeong65 Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 hello i owned a set 2x4 gigs from this ram: CMZ4GX3M1A1600C9...it is brand new. but now i saw on the internet, that version 5.11 is around and mine are only version 2.12 ....is it old ram ?? if it is iám not very happy about that As Wired stated, version numbers have nothing to do with the age of the RAM. The one- or two-digit number after the decimal point indicates which non-IC parts (such as the PCB) were used on the module(s) in question. That said, as per the DDR3 IC list, version 2.x indicates Elpida ICs while version 5.x indicates Hynix ICs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
