is my frequncy is right? sorry i'm so new in this..i buy ddr3 1333/pc10600isn't that i should get the frequency around 1333mhz? coz i only getting 686mhz only..

[attachmentid=1374920]

yeah..mine oso..i'm using ddr2 800mhz..but it apear only 400mhz..y does dis happens?

The speed of DDR is usually expressed in terms of its "effective data rate", which is twice its actual clock speed. PC3200 memory, or DDR400, or 400 MHz DDR, is not running at 400 MHz, it is running at 200 MHz. The fact that it accomplishes two data transfers per clock cycle gives it nearly the same bandwidth as SDRAM running at 400 MHz, but DDR400 is indeed still running at 200 MHz.

Actual clock speed/effective transfer rate

100/200 MHz => DDR200 or PC1600
133/266 MHz => DDR266 or PC2100
166/333 MHz => DDR333 or PC2700
185/370 MHz => DDR370 or PC3000
200/400 MHz => DDR400 or PC3200
217/433 MHz => DDR433 or PC3500
233/466 MHz => DDR466 or PC3700
250/500 MHz => DDR500 or PC4000
267/533 MHz => DDR533 or PC4200
283/566 MHz => DDR566 or PC4500
So how do they come about those names? Well, the industry specifications for memory operation, features and packaging are finalized by a standardization body called JEDEC. JEDEC, the acronym, once stood for Joint Electron Device Engineering Council, but now is just called the JEDEC Solid State Technology Association.

The naming convention specified by JEDEC is as follows:
Memory chips are referred to by their native speed. Example, 333 MHz DDR SDRAM memory chips are called DDR333 chips, and 400 MHz DDR SDRAM memory chips are called DDR400.

DDR modules are also referred to by their peak bandwidth, which is the maximum amount of data that can be delivered per second. Example, a 400 MHz DDR DIMM is called a PC3200 DIMM. To illustrate this on a 400 MHz DDR module: Each module is 64 bits wide, or 8 Bytes wide (each byte = 8 bits). To get the transfer rate, multiply the width of the module (8 Bytes) by the rated speed of the memory module (in MHz): (8 Bytes) x (400 MHz/second) = 3,200 Mbytes/second or 3.2 Gbytes/second, hence the name PC3200
To date, the JEDEC consortium is yet to finalize specifications for PC3500 & higher modules. PC2400 was a very short lived label applied to overclocked PC2100 memory. PC3000 was not and will not ever be an official JEDEC standard.

Hi all,

now i'm acer laptop using 2 x RAM card total 4gb, recently i found my laptop very slow..... i worry one of my Ram not function, how can i know both RAM are working?

i go to window task manager i found my physical memory usage history only 1.3gb ia mean that my RAM only run 1.3gb? maybe i'm wrong?? anyone can tell me how check my RAM?

hello....i wanted 2 buy a RAM i don't knw i should go with 4GB/2GB RAM...n which brand 2 choose....any advise?n what's de best price 4 a 2GB n 4GB RAM?

guys need help here.
im using AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ 2.21Ghz, HD5670 GDDR5 512MB,
and 2Gb DDR2 RAM 667.
im wondering is 2GB ram enough for performance and gaming ?
im planning to get another 2GB ram (combine to 4GB) to improve PC PERFORMANCE and GAMING.. can anyone let me know whether such improvements will be achieved, whether 2Gb ram is enough anot ...

i checked everyday .. when gaming it was like 1.70 - 1.80GB like tat ...
and everytime FINISH playing GTA4, the PC takes a lot of time (around 5 minutes) to recover back the memory and start working, I quit the game, and eveything lag lag lag, until minutes only SLOWly back to normal ~

u mean the 1.80GB is eaten by the system ? means it does not include the memory taken by the game as well ? wow, confuse ~

with 800 ram, window 7 support it or not ?
