PC Peripherals Ram Speed

[Subhabrata Banerjee]

Please advise on how can I determine the Speed of the Ram that i am currently using.

http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html will give you all the details that you want.

Can you please advise which field to look into for the RAM speed?

Memory tab.

This is the screen i am getting so does that mean the RAM speed is 1596.2 MHz?

The Memory Slot selection gives the specs of ram in each slot. so currently the SS above is showing the info about the Slot#1. Now, if you want to replace the RAM, all you need to worry about is the MaxBandwidth value. Here it is PC3-10700. hope that helps.

In my case the ram is currently running at 1334Mhz (667X2 DDR3) where are it will run at 2400MHz when running in XMP mode (overclocked)

As per the above screenshot the RAM Speed would 1600Mhz.Please let me know if i am wrong.
Thanks a lot for helping me with this.

^Yes thats true.

As per the above screenshot the RAM Speed would 1600Mhz.

that's correct. it's dual channel ram so its speed is 800 x 2 = 1600mhz

 

[booo]

it's dual channel ram so its speed is 800 x 2

NOOOO. not because is its dual channel. dual channel means the ram modules come in pairs.
here the speed is 1600 because its DDR. DDR->Double Data Rate.

you're right it's double data rate - my bad
