The Module
The module is covered by two black-anodized heatspreaders. Both front and back heatspreaders are the same. There is only a single Mushkin Enhanced Memory logo in the center of each heatspreader.
Only the white label confirms that this memory module is part of a Mushkin XP2-5300 dual pack, with a capacity of 1024MB. Unfortunately, the rated timings and voltages were not printed on the label.
Peeking under the heatspreaders, we noticed nothing out of the ordinary. The memory chips were all properly taped to the heatspreaders. You can also see that this is a dual-sided memory module, with four chips on each side.
While it's possible to remove the heatspreaders, doing so automatically voids the module's lifetime warranty. So, don't attempt it unless you absolutely MUST peek at the memory chips.
