DDR4 with temp sensors

Hi,

 

Anyone know if the G.Skill V series has built in temp probes, or the Kingston Hyper X Savage. the spec sheets don't give a lot away.

 

If not know of any kits that do have built in temp probes?

 

Thanks

I don't know any kit by heart that would have these built-in. Even if they had, it would require separate connector to get the data from the sensors as it can not be received via the RAM itself.

I know the crucial Ballistix elite have the sensor but all the kits are CL16

Why?

 

DDR4 memory isn't that power hungry, they don't use more than a few watts, so at most they'll heat up to about 50-70 C, well within their 85-120c maximum temperature. What's the point of having temperature probes on them?

 

and what jj9987 says, there's no mechanism through which a memory stick could pass along the temperature to computer. They could hack it somehow to store the temperature in the eeprom that stores profiles but it would be ridiculous (not to mention the epprom has limited writes, a few millions but still..).

No idea how the crucial ones do it some probe according to their site but the memory is super unstable hence why I sent it back I kept crashing when playing planet coaster with that ram I think my old corsair kit had temp sensors as well
