Possible to adapt the project to support DDR4 DIMM Slot/Sockets? #2

Closed mparchm closed 2 years ago

mparchm commented 2 years ago

It'd be great and make this project even better if there was the flexibility to quickly cycle modules/DIMMs through...e.g. to Fix up a set of modules rather quickly/for frequent/high volume use cases.

Could a PCB with a (or multiple) DIMM slot be created with exposed headers/2.54mm header pins for easy Arduino interfacing so you wire the Arduino up to the PCB and then it's as easy as loading DIMMs into the right slot (e.g. DDR3, DDR4, etc...) rather than spending time with wiring for each/every DIMM you wish to interact with?

I'd be interested in sponsoring the development of such a PCB if you would need to outsource it. In fact, I believe I know just the person and could get a quote from him/cover the costs associated to benefit this project. How might we get in touch to further collaborate on this? I have email, Discord, many other IMs, etc. Let me know!

Great work. Also, your specs on the forum; does X299SE2 refer to Sage II?

Yes, it is possible to interface multiple devices on the same i2c bus, in fact, this feature is already implemented in the GUI, it will show the number of found i2c devices in the status bar, and during read/write/verify operations it will ask what device to work with.

It is possible to interface more than on DIMMs (even of different types) for read/write operation to allow multiple operations in a batch, depending on your feature needs.

To discuss further development of such product, send me a private message on EVGA forum. If you are a new member, you won't be able to PM me, in that case just post a message on the forum in my thread indicating who you are, and I'll send my email via a PM to you.

oh, and X299SE2 in my sig is ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II

Ah, alright 👍
