Second comment... I wonder how long we're going to have to wait for memory prices to go down. I've built computers in the past for a little more than the price of this memory kit!

There's a program that will read them.

Thaiphoon Burner.

Crashman, OK, but why didn't you mention that software in your review?

Because it wasn't part of the benchmarks.

Because it wasn't part of the benchmarks.

If it is not part of the benchmarks, why do you use Thaiphoon Burner? Tom's Hardware is not eligible to use this software and I would be thankful to you if you guys would not use our software for your next reviews. Thanks!

Did I say I used Thaiphoon Burner? Did I say I didn't take the heat spreaders off? Did I say I didn't just ask someone? You're making a lot of assumptions.

I merely told you that you could find software to read the ICs. If you've already found the software that works for you, good for you. If you didn't want my help, you should have just said so.
