When I run 'lshw', the memory lines come out as :

This looks like WK's output rather than Dale's more limited version.

It also doesn't match the spec of the memory when I bought it,
which I recorded in my own files as :

  071009 Memory : Kingston 2 x 512 kit DDR2 1150 PC2 9200      :  124.99

The specs are at (they seem to have dropped the  512 MB  version)

  http://www.valueram.com/datasheets/KHX9200D2_1G.pdf

which seems to confirm my own record.

The speed was supposedly  1150 MHz , but 'lshw' gives  1872 MHz .
Of course, I'm not complaining if it's faster than advertised (smile),
but does anyone have any comments re the  2  differences in output ?


Well, I suspect it may be the age of my mobo. I have a Abit NF7 rev 2.0 which has been around a while. It may be that other peoples mobo is newer and has some "enhancements" that my old rig doesn't have. I have always found that age is the reason for things acting different. I need a new rig. o_O

I to would be interested in knowing if it is something else causing this. Could it be that some mobos report differently? Could it be something to do with the chipset being used?
