  • Copy this and save to your desktop as videoCardScript.ps1
  • Click Start then type powershell and then press enter
  • type cd ~Desktop then press enter
  • type videoCardScript.ps1 then press enter
  • note: if you receive an error mentioning ..cannot be loaded because running scripts is disabled on this system. you may need to change your execution policy with the following command in powershell: Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted.
  • ****Ensure you do the following command when complete to maintain the security of your system:** Set-ExecutionPolicy restricted

If you're interested in getting more info you can comment out the del dxoutput.xml command by adding a # in front of it. You can then look at the contents of the xml file that's saved to your desktop and can adjust accordingly. If you want to remove some info in the script you can always comment out those specific lines or remove them entirely.

PS- you may see multiple of the same cards. There's a reason I have the Output Type included here: a card will show multiples based on how many outputs it can support. In my case mine shows DVI (self explanatory) and HD15 (which is VGA).

PSS- I ran this on a Windows 8 machine. There's a possibility you may need to install powershell on the XP machines. They'll need to have Service Pack 3 installed and then you can install Powershell from here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/968929 (Windows Management Framework (Windows PowerShell 2.0, WinRM 2.0, and BITS 4.0))

MSI GTX 1070 Micron vs Samsung memory - how to find out manufacturer

I've built my new rig recently [link], that includes MSI GeForce GTX 1070 graphics card. This model, as well as others, features either Samsung or Micron memory. It's known that there had been problems reported for GTX cards including Micron GDDR5 memory [link], when it comes to overclocking. Even if these problems have been resolved, I've decided to pick Samsung one just to avoid BIOS updates etc. Unfortunately, it turned out it's not possible to tell the difference between a card with Samsung and Micron memory, unless you plug-in the card and check the memory manufacturer in GPU-Z app or similar.

So I've decided I will simply call MSI for some help. Luckily, the guy on the tech support was a really decent chap and he sent me a spreadsheet that you can use to tell the difference between Micron and Samsung card based only on the information you can find out on the graphics card box. Here's the spreadsheet:

First you need to find out the revision number of the particular card. The revision number are the first 3 characters after the second dash character ('-') of the card's serial number (S/N). You can find out card's serial number on the GPU box sticker. To give you an example, here's the sticker from MSI GTX 1070 box:

Thus, in this case, the serial number is:

S/N:602-V330-08Sxxxxxxxxxxx

'08S' is the revision number we are looking for (as these are first 3 character after the second dash character.) Now we can find out which manufacturer's memory was included in that MSI graphics card by looking at the 'BOM' column in the MSI spreadsheet:

Now we now, that '08S' revision (as well as revisions '06s' and '100') features Samsung memory, rather than Micron.

Hope that helps you.

TL;DR

Graphics Card Serial Number

If you are trying to buy MSI GTX 1070 card with Samsung memory rather than Micron you can use the spreadsheet in this post to find out the card's memory manufacturer just refering to the serial number written on the graphics card box.
