Sometimes, but it's not as easy as it used to be.

As franklin mentioned, it's not as easy as it use to be, but look for a number following a dash, such as -60 or -70 which would indicate it's a 60 nanosecond or 70 nanosecond chip.

Many manufacturers have also been using PC133 chips on PC100 modules for SDRAM parts. In this case , you would need an program which could read the eeprom on the module. The you would need to know which byte inside the eeprom which indicates the speed at which the module is programmed to run at.

Aida32 is a great program that will tell you everything about your RAM, and it is free.
