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, response time (CAS Latency) from CL4 to CL19, while its capacity has increased up to 16GB per memory unit.

For speed (MT/s) and capacity (GB), the larger size we choose, the better performance we will have in our system, while for response time (CL), we want the smallest size for the speed (MT/s) we have selected.

The above characteristics should be compatible with our motherboard specifications.

The Patriot DDR3 provides speed at 1600MT/s, with CL11 and 8GB per memory unit.

Installing RAM memory is a very easy process. After making sure that the computer is turned off and unplugged, you need to open the computer case, locate the slots on your motherboard, and correctly insert the RAM into the slot.
