Abstract

An information handling system includes a memory module having a first thermal sensor for a first memory channel, and a second thermal sensor for a second memory channel. A processor receives a first temperature from the first thermal sensor and a second temperature from the second thermal sensor, and performs a first high bandwidth access of the first memory channel. In response to a predetermined amount of time ending, the processor: receives a third temperature from the first thermal sensor and a fourth temperature from the second thermal sensor; determines a first temperature delta based on a difference between the third and first temperatures; and determines a second temperature delta based on a difference between the fourth and second temperatures. Based on the first and second temperature deltas, the processor determines whether the first or second memory channel is an upstream memory channel.
