SK Hynix is reputed to have better DDR5 (more timing margin) than Samsung or Micron. In the past, when I've purchased DIMMs made with Samsung or Micron chips, they have borne the Samsung or Micron logo and part number, from which the chip specifications can be located. Not so when the chips are house-marked.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@brouhaha/116881656576039261 Some democracy needs to start a Chip Fab party: like the Pirate Party, but RAM and SSDs. Policy priority: Have the federal government buy a bunch of ASML kit and create a #PSE program to train operators while building a factory exclusively for PC and laptop RAM, exclusively for sale to direct (i.e., non-cloud) users of computers, not for resellers of computing services, with major quotas reserved for individuals, healthcare, education, other critical infrastructure, and small businesses. #cdnpoli #ukpol #eupol #auspol #BuellerBuellerBueller
