I think the title says it all, its partly to do with the GTO question, is there any way of interrogating the memory on a video card and determining what it is, and what its timings are etc. like with SPD and normal RAM.

Any overclocking tool should give you core clock and memory frequency and allow you to modify it. Coolbits, Rivatuner or NvTweak should work.

Am thinking more about the manufacturer and the actual low level timings, Cas to Ras, latency etc.

i.e. how do I tell what the ns speed of my RAM is without taking the heatsink off...

Try this, but don't mess up the Bios of your video card.

Thanks, its told me most of what I want to know, don't what to do with it next though, more investigation required.

one question though, these are the timings that the bios uses, is it possible to find what the RAM modules themselves are, as these could be very different...
