The XMS2 family is Corsair’s mainstream line of performance DDR2 memory. These modules allow users to experience outstanding memory performance and stability. Available in signature black XMS heat spreaders, each module is built using carefully selected RAMs.

Yet, I actually got a really weird and rare problem.

Look at the Slot1 and Slot3. They actually got different Part Number and different Frequency. I suspect there is something wrong with the RAM.

(Though, I actually suspect CPU-Z too; So, I have tested with other System Information software, which gave me the same result)

I decided to test them one by one. So, firstly I will put single ram (which was previously in Slot3) and look at the picture below.

Slot 1: (This is the correct one)

It is exactly the statistics of Corsair CM2X2048-6400C4DHX (400MHz at 4-4-4-12).

And below is the Vista Score (please look at the Memory Score)

It scores 5.1 in Memory.

Okay. Everything is done, so I changed to the other pair of RAM in. Ran the CPU-Z, and below is what I got

Slot 2: (The incorrect one)

As I expected, 8500C5D would be running at 533MHz (5-5-5-15) or 400MHz (5-5-5-18). It is not a Corsair CM2X2048-6400C4DHX. It must be something wrong with Corsair.

Same as the previous step, I ran the Vista Performance test. Below is what I got…

Surprisingly, it scores 5.6 in Memory (RAM). Clearly, it is really not a Corsair CM2X2048-6400C4DHX.

I will try to get some helps from where I bought it. Hopefully it could be solved (exchange a new one or whatever) easily =P

Just wanted to share around.

If you have any good solutions, or you are facing any similar problems, please reply here. Thanks =)

Gordian worms (Scientific term: Nematomorpha) live inside crickets. Once fully grown, they inject chemicals into the cricket’s brain, brainwashing it and forcing it to kill itself by jumping into water. Once in water, the worm wriggles out of the writhing body and swims off in search of a mate.

We can actually force the Gordian worms out from the cricket… See below…

Mistaeks Happen or Mistakes Happen?

I found this bug in my memory card.

Notice the red arrow area, there is a folder named ‘dot’. We can neither access nor remove the ‘dot’ folder. Guess what can I do now is only re-format it.

Do you have any idea could help? =/
