ibild a comp 4 weeks ago with a amd3 and ddr3….
March 12th, 2010 at 10:35 pm
it’s actually called just DDR
March 15th, 2010 at 8:17 pm
ddr3 is only a good choice if you have a core i system or the lastest amd phenom II cpus, ddr2 is the best choice for the older cpus like the core 2 duo, core 2 quad, phenoms and athlons

@krauser979 More than likely, you are using an integrated video card (it is built into the motherboard, and not a dedicated PCI-E/AGP) and your system is sharing 256mb of RAM with it.

DDR1 ftw

March 21st, 2010 at 10:22 am

There are quite a few laptop manufacturers that also recognize the need for higher RAM which is why there are some which offer upgrade worthy versions where you can increase the RAM to about 2 GB also. This is not only possible but also becoming increasingly common in the world of mini laptops.

faster, and cooler

What’s the difference between a DDR3 ram with 1067 MHz and a DDR3 ram wtih 1337 MHz?
March 27th, 2010 at 3:46 pm
The quoted size on the box is in metric bytes, the amount that the computer is quoting however is in binary bytes, not to mention the difference between different cards. Made even by the same machine. You ram sounds like it is running at maximum already.

guys i got a problem im running windows 7 64bit and i got 4gigs of ram but its only letting me use 3.75 gigs of ram instead of all 4 can anybody help me unlock the rest of my ram?
April 4th, 2010 at 2:47 pm
i got 4 gigs of xms3 ddr3 and i can overclock it like crazy it will never overheat i highly recommend it you can even lower latency.

Guys my 1gb ddr2 667 mhz PQI is working on 5-5-5-15 and its enough for a home pc not a gaming rig

@azn456789
download cpu-z and in the memory/SPD Tab it will tell you your memory speed in MHz not rams. If you have aim i could just tell u what i know which isnt much

what is it ddr ddr2 3?
April 12th, 2010 at 3:30 am

April 13th, 2010 at 4:35 pm

Windows is sticking a 128Gb limit on Windows 7. Taking the limit off and 64 bit Windows will hit 16 Eb. 64 gig pales in comparison.
April 17th, 2010 at 7:03 pm
the CPU may be compatible with both ddr2 and ddr3.. but the motherboard will not
April 18th, 2010 at 8:40 pm
ddr3 ?!?!?!? doesnt ur mobo underclock ur memory speeds to become stable?? and only increase if ur overclocking more than 20%
April 20th, 2010 at 2:08 pm
good
thank you!
April 21st, 2010 at 3:07 am
yes you can, not only that you can more than likely run it faster than what the motherboard “supports”
