How can I tell if my Memory has Micron D9G IC's

[spartancal]

I ordered 4 GB of Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC2 8000 CL5 Memory from tigerdirect. Ramlist says it could contain D9G chips or unknown chips. How can I tell what chips I have? The memory has a heat shink on it which prevents me from viewing the IC's directly.

Info on Memory packaging

Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC2 8000 CL5 w/LED EPP
part number - BL12864AL1005.16FD3
1 Gb 240 Pin unbuff DIMM 128MX64 DDR2
CL1117D.K7

the 8000 is a high bin part on crucial's end.

i'm gonna say they are D9GMH.

edit: there was a way of telling w/o taking the spreaders off but i can't find the pic.

Isn't Crucial a Micron subsidiary? If so ain't it always Micron chips just maybe not the particular D9 types?

Correct.

Also correct, although as far as I know, all Ballistix have D9 IC's. Of course, that may have changed, and we just didn't hear about it. That wouldn't surprise me, either.

someone actually got some crucial modules made with elpida...

but these were not the ballistix series so i'm sure you are fine.
