Thanks to idiot for letting me know of a situation developing in Taiwan involving DRAM remarking. It seems that DRAM chips are being remarked from 6 ns V-Data to 4 ns Samsung on Radeon 9550 and GeForce 5200 video cards.



Remarked Chips
The picture above originates from here and you can clearly see the V from the V-Data logo on the left chip. Below is another example:



This photo is from here and another can be found here.

According to sources, a gag order went out to five customer representatives this morning regarding the situation. We believe the situation is limited to manufacturers in Taiwan, distributing products in Asia, who do not market their products in North America or Europe. It is assumed the manufacturer must have some knowledge of the remarking since the memory clockrate is set to a mere 166 MHz. More information can be found at this page (in Chinese).
