Identification notes
What is known
ACCESSION 007. The supplied photograph directly establishes custody of two Corsair XMS3 desktop DIMMs with the identical base part number CMX4GX3M1A1600C9. Each label records 1600 MHz, 4 GB (1×4 GB), 9-9-9-24, and 1.65 V. The two modules carry different printed PCB revisions, 5.11 and 2.12; they are therefore cataloged as a matched-model pair rather than an asserted original two-module retail kit. Corsair's product record identifies this SKU as a 4 GB DDR3-1600 C9 XMS3 module with a 240-pin DIMM interface, PC3-12800 speed rating, 1.65 V tested profile, and 1333 MHz / 1.5 V SPD profile. The photographed state does not establish full contact condition, reverse-side configuration, SPD contents, prior use, host compatibility, stability, or successful memory testing. This DDR3 pair is retained separately from the DDR4-only X99 recovery platform.
Restoration relevance
Why it remains connected
accessioned / identity and catalog specifications verified / matched model pair, original retail-kit provenance unverified / function unverified. Disposition: archive / controlled test candidate. The object remains associated with L'Archive.
Uncertainty notes
What remains unresolved
in hand / labels and partial contact edges photographed / black XMS heat spreaders present / full reverse-side, contact, and electrical inspection pending. accessioned / identity and catalog specifications verified / matched model pair, original retail-kit provenance unverified / function unverified. Terms marked unknown, provisional, pending, or unverified remain part of the record until evidence resolves them.
