How to read DIMM SPD information via I2C bus.
I don't know the exact I2C address of DIMMs

Thanks in advance.

I don't know if it is using the 12C bus but Speedfan can usually read and
display SPD information

There's a linux kernel module that can do it, and then be read by
lm_sensors. lm_sensors will also have the bus-probing code needed.

On Windows, the easiest tool to do this I'm aware of is CPU-Z; I'm not sure
if they've published source code though
