1GB DDR RAM

DDR RAM is an acronym for double data rate random access memory, which is a temporary storage device, enabling fast access to data. DDR RAM functions twice as efficiently as its predecessor ñ SDRAM, as it transfers double the data at any given time using the same clock speeds. This way, it effectively doubles the bandwidth available to the processor and the entire computer sub-system as well as transfer twice the amount of data. DDR SDRAM is available in four different clock speeds. DDR-200 runs at 100MHz, providing a bandwidth of 1.6GB/s and is also known as PC-1600. DDR-266 runs at 133 MHz, also known as PC-2100, giving 2.133 GB/s bandwidth. Next in the series is DDR-333 that runs at 166 MHz, called PC-2700 and gives 2.667 GB/s bandwidth. The last one is DDR-400, which is also called PC-3200 runs at 200 MHz, providing 3.200 GB/s bandwidth.

DDR RAM is offered in different storage capacity such as 512 MB, 1 GB and the latest one 2 GB. DDR Ram of 1 GB is widely used by consumers because of easy availability and affordable price. Moreover, a computer has four RAM slots wherein a user can place four 1GB DDR RAMs resulting in faster processing for complicated applications. 1 GB capacity is sufficient for most animations, games, video editing, and other multimedia applications. It also allows the user to open multiple windows at a time without decreasing computer speed.
