How To Check RAM Speed in Windows 10 PC – Guide

Thinking of your PC as if it were a human brain is an analogy to help you get what RAM is. Your PC’s CPU is the prefrontal cortex, where the main choices and functions take place; the extra space on your hard drive is extended memory; and RAM is your PC’s momentary memory or working memory.

Slam (random access memory) is where your PC drifts away from current assignments, like the projects and apps you’ve opened. The more RAM you have, the more proficiently your PC can perform various tasks and the better it will function. Anyway, would you like to notice how to really take a look at the RAM? How about we take a dip.

How much RAM is in my computer?

  • The easiest way if you have Windows 10 is to right-click on the taskbar and choose Task Manager from the menu. If in compact mode, click More Details and then the Performance tab.
  • Click on Memory and you will see how much your computer has in the upper right corner.
  • If you have an older version of Windows, press the Windows key + R to bring up up the Run command.
  • Type dxdiag in the Open field and click OK. In the window that appears up you can see how much memory is inside your PC.

    • How do I check my RAM speed on Windows 10?

  • Windows makes it difficult to see the clock speed of your RAM, so for that we need to resort to a third-party program: CPU-Z.
  • Install CPU-Z and it will run an analysis of your system, then it will do up lots of useful information – including RAM speed.
  • Click the Memory tab to find various information about your computer’s memory. What you are looking for is the top entry: ‘DRAM Frequency’.
  • As you’ll see in our screenshot, our RAM is 534 MHz, but since it’s DDR RAM (Double Data Rate), we multiply that number by two to get one final 1068MHz figure.
  • You can also enter your computer’s BIOS and see the RAM speed there. If you already know what speed your RAM should run at, you’ll know if it’s running at the correct speed or not.
  • If you don’t know, you may have to look at the memory cards themselves to find the make and model, then search online to find the specifications. Often, RAM designed to run faster than standard JEDEC presets will be slower than it’s capable, so you may have to go into the BIOS and manually set the speed (and other timings) to get it running at the right speed.
  • When adding more RAM into free memory slots, it’s a good idea to get matching drumsticks if possible. Otherwise, buy RAM that matches your current memory specifications.

    • Final note
