Corsair DDR4-3000 2x16 sodimm die type?

I am taking a look at the corsair "CMSX32GX4M2A3000C16". I was wondering if its Hynix, Samsung B-die, or Micron based. If anyone knows or has a pair and can run thaiphoon burner to see if it reports the brand that would be amazing~

 

yeah lemme check on mine if i can find out via software. be aware though that to date i havent found a single user who was able to actually run those at 3000 mhz without errors. i myself have gotten them up to 2933 mhz in my machine (see my sig) with a LOT of tweaking

unfortunately, this seems to be the case for all so-dimm kits for 3000 Mhz and up. so either corsair or gskill at 3000/3200/3800/4000 mhz will involve a lot of elbow grease, tweaking and patience to get them even close to advertized specs. from what ive seen thus far:

official 3000 - reality 2933 - 3200 (if youre lucky)
official 3200 - reality 3000 - 3333 (if youre really lucky)
official 3800 - reality 3460 - 3600
official 4000 - likely 3600 - 3800 with tweaking

please be aware that the higher clock in each example is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to achieve and ive only seen the pros BARELY manage it @Johnksss @Mr. Fox and others...

so anyways, brb with more info on those chips

edit: yep, looks like its samsung B-Die

Spoiler

 

I appreciate it!~ To me even if we cannot get it to 3000 at least the timings can be tightened

 

I know it's not apples to apples due to BIOS, but I would think that physical components are close enough that a laptop wouldn't be much different than the Mighty Mini when it comes to memory.

Here's 3000MHz GSkill (using an XMP profile) on the Mini running at 3000MHz - http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/mighty-muscular-mini-itx-build.812322/page-2#post-10666200

 

unfortunately, desktop systems (even though ITX or similar) definitely have an edge compared with laptops using the identical SO-DIMMs. i wouldnt hesitate in assuming that all SO-DIMM kits will easily reach the advertized speeds and timings there. the reality on actual notebooks, however, is different and mirrored in my above post...

 

yep... although the technologist in me says it really shouldn't have to be this way.

 

oh heck yeah, im 100% with you there! im guessing it starts with the length of the traces / their distance from the IMC in the CPU (right next to the socket on ITX desktop, basically miles away on a laptop mobo) and continues onwards through to locked down laptop sBIOS, lower quality components on laptop mobos and, of course, lower binned IMCs in mobile CPUs (when were talking BGA vs. desktop LGA in laptops, of course).

 

LOL! I never even considered the impact of 'mobile' CPUs, as those barely even cross my mind - even when talking laptops. DTR... FTW!

 

juuust wanted to cover all bases however UNlikely in our case
