DDR3 is the third generation of RAM memory technology for computers. It replaces DDR2 and offers increased speeds and capacity.
It offers operating speeds from 800MT/s to 2133MT/s, latency (CAS Latency) from CL4 to CL19, while its capacity has increased up to 16GB per memory module.
For speed (MT/s) and capacity (GB), the larger the size we choose, the better performance we will have in our system, while for latency (CL), we want the smallest size for the speed (MT/s) we have chosen.
The above characteristics should be compatible with the specifications of our motherboard.
The G.Skill RipjawsX provides speed at 1600MT/s, with CL10 and 8GB per memory module.
