| ethomaz said: I can read the model number from this picture: http://images.anandtech.com/reviews/video/nintendo/WiiU/DSC_9008.jpg H5TQ4G63MFR https://www.skhynix.com/products/computing/view.jsp?info.ramKind=19&info.serialNo=H5TQ4G63MFR Is that the same model you talking about??? With a 16bits bus interface (64bits for 4 modules) you have 12.8GB/s and not 17. |
The picture from the PCP guys says Samsung K4W4G16446B-HC12. I haven't seen Hynix parts before. Apparently Nintendo bought dram from at least two sources. However, since all WiiUs have to perform identically, the Hynix chips will obviously be programmed to perform identical to the Samsung gDDR3 parts. Note that the Samsung chips perform at 17GBytes/s, this does not necessarily mean the WiiU does it at that speed, they could be clocked at 12.8G/s (but then why buy expensive Samsung chips when cheaper, slower ones do the job?). Until someone actually measures the clocks, we don't know.
