Hey, im trying to gather infornation on the RAM in my computer so that I can figure out how far to overclock my CPU. Pic related is one of the sticks in my computer, how do I look this thing up to learn more about its specs?

By definition, if you're running it within specs, you're not overclocking it.
It'll already be running within specs, so go to your BIOS and see what it says the timings are. Beyond the SPD timings, the onus is on you.

I dont think you understood my question, so I'll reword it. I want to look up the manufacturer's provided information for this specific RAM stick, how can I use the information provided on the stick itself to obtain it?

Maybe look up the serials dumb fuck.
Like how stupid are you to not figure this shit out on your own?

you can read some of the specs from the model number, M378B5273CH0-CH9
M
3 = DIMM
78 = 240 pin unbuffered DIMM
B = DDR3 SDRAM
52 = 512M
7 = 8 banks
3 = bit organisation x8
C = 4th generation
H= FBGA
0 = no revision
C = normal temperature and power (1.5 V)
H9 = DDR3-1333 (667MHz @ CL=9, tRCD=9, tRP=9)

It's already in the information provided on the the stick. That's the whole point of the SPD ROM.
If you're actually looking to overclock the RAM, you need to look up the actual RAM chips, both their official specifications and anecdotes as to their performance when overclocked (which the manufacturer isn't going to tell you).
There's no point in looking up the DIMM, because it's just made with whatever chips meeting the spec that the assembler had lying around at the time.
