DDR3

I bought a new 4GB 1.5 years ago for my laptop (K55VJ an Ivy-bridge core i7 with HM77) and because of available stocks I got a DDR3L RAM with similar specs with the old ram (Samsung 4GB PC3-12800S-11) that I mixed it with (the old one is DDR3 while new one is DDR3L). After installing it, all was...

I am gaming on my computer and streaming on my laptop to lift some of the stress off of the pc. With how my audio is configured for streaming, I am required to keep OBS running in the background of my gaming pc to transfer my mic and game audio over NDI to my streaming pc, which consumes some...

My Lenovo G50-80 laptop (i3 5005u with R5 M330 2GB model) had 2X4GB RAM modules ("SAMSUNG M471B5173EB0-YK0 DDR3 4 GB" and "Hynix HMT351S6EFR8C-PB DDR3 4 GB"), both worked fine and CPUz was showing 1600MHz and 8GB total. The Hynix RAM was purchased in April. I had to remove the Hynix 4GB module...

Will this speed ram work with my motherboard? MOBO: H61M-P31/W8 (MS-7788) PROC: I don't have the ivy bridge processor DDR3 8gb 1600mhz

Greetings! Apologies for the newbie question, but can you go beyond the XMP speed of a RAM stick? For example, if a RAM stick has an XMP speed of 2400MHZ can I go beyond that? In a general sense, it's like "can I overclock the memory?" Thank you.

Hi everyone :) I decided that I want to upgrade from 12 GB to 16 GB of ram. I'm not entirely sure what memory speed and what kind of memory my system can maximally support. It'd be nice if you could tell me what memory I should go for to get the maximum out of my system. Other tips are welcome...

I am currently gaming on an i5-3470 system, and have been for almost the past 8 years. I have only started upgrading it back in October of 2020 by buying a used R9 270x (my previous card was a GT 520 so it was a HUGE step for me). I am now looking for different ways to possibly upgrade my rig...

I have a computer that i play games on and i was wondering if 16gb ddr3 1866mhz is good for 2021. i might upgrade to 32 2133mhz since i'm probably not going to get a new motherboard and ddr4 ram, so could someone tell me if its good? but if its rational just tell me and i'll look into a new...

Hello! So I recently purchased two DDR3 8gb rated at 1600MHz each, I put them both in but my computer is only reading them at 800MHz. It says I have the memory capacity of 16GB, but it’s running low at 800MHz instead of 1600MHz. I’d understand it being 800MHz if I was running 2x4gb at 800MHz a...

Hello. I have 2x4gb 1600Mhz Samsung memory, I was wondering if I could add a pair of 8gb memory clocked at the same speed without running into issues or it would be better if I bought another pair of the same 4gb RAMs I already own? It is really important to me since getting the 8gb pair would...

I recently bought a 2nd hand AMD R9 270X graphics card, slowly upgrading from a GT 520 (I know). I realized it requires two 6 pin PCIE cables which my current PSU doesn't have, and is recommended to be used with atleast a 500w PSU. My current PSU is a 450W Thermaltake TT-450PL1NH-1. My PC's...
