    They could be from anywhere and could be any rating from the factory and re binned. The original ones I got from them were 1333 mhz chips on 1866mhz modules.

    freddynew, you have to take a look at post #409 of this thread. These chips seem to be manufactured by Nanya. For the moment Nanya does not let me download PDFs for some kind of webserver issues. But, as the chips are 4Gb 512Mx8, they would be related to NT5CC512M8BN-CG/DI or NT5CC512M8CN-CG/DI 1.35V parts. Corsair is used to employ low-power chips for SO-DIMMs for further over-clocking and rising VDD/VDDQ up to 1.50V.

    Although most high performance parts are 1.35v now these days.

    Something around there but unless you are ordering lots of sticks and testing them and picking the fastest ones it more comes down to what your chips can do.
