What is Tccd?

[stevedub]

I see this term used with ram a lot, and I was wondering what it means

 

[Nubius]

TCCD refers to the actual IC's used in RAM. the IC's (Integrated Circuits) are the actual black chips on the RAM stick. TCCD are todays current best overclockers reaching high FSB's with little voltage. BH-5's used to be the best, and many argue still are, but to really get the most out of them requires over 3.2v generally which most people either can't do without a volt mod, or simply the fact it's not as safe to run that much voltage 24/7

Ah thanks again Nubius. Like I've posted before, its hard to figure out all these abbreviations

 

[Nubius]

Well, I only know it as the abbreviation. I couldn't tell you what TCCD actually stood for besides simply saying it's a product or part name or something along those lines

 

[stevedub]

well as long as we know what it does
