Some users may think that the specifications of random-access
memory (RAM) are limited only to size, but this is not true at all, as there
are a number of details and information that should be focused on when thinking
about buying a new computer or when thinking about upgrading the current RAM in
the computer. Your device such as RAM size, RAM speed, RAM type, and RAM brands
(manufacturer). The size of the RAM certainly comes to the fore in terms of
importance, but this does not at all diminish the rest of the specifications of
the RAM, such as speed, type, manufacturer, and so on.
What is the speed of the rams?
The speed of the ram or the frequency of the ram is
what determines the speed of data exchange between the ram and the rest of the
components of the device. Therefore, the higher the RAM speed, the faster the
data transfer rate between the RAM and the components of your computer. For
example, in the image above, the RAM frequency is 2666MHz. 2666MHz means that
it is capable of performing 2666 cycles per second.
But you should know very well that the speed of the
RAM is not as important as the size of the RAM, because the insufficient size
of the RAM memory can greatly affect the overall performance of the computer
and the performance of games in particular, especially if you are a fan of
playing games on your computer screen.
Find out the amount of RAM in the computer
Let's shed light first on how to know the size of the
RAM in the computer. Here are a set of different ways to see the size of the
RAM in the computer.
The first method:

To find out the amount of RAM in your Windows
computer. Just, right-click on the My Computer icon. Then, choose the last
option, “Personalize” properties, after which you will immediately notice the
appearance of the RAM size as in the screenshot above, and you can also,
through the above screen, view the entire processor specifications and know the
Windows kernel, whether it is 32 or 64 bits, etc.
The second method:

You can easily and with a few clicks know the amount
of RAM in your device through the CMD screen. Just, click on the Windows sign +
R shortcut. Then, on the RUN screen, type CMD and hit the Enter button. Then,
copy the above command and paste it into the CMD screen and click Enter.
Immediately, the RAM size of your device will be displayed as in the screenshot
above.
Of course, there are many other ways that help you
know the size of the RAM in the computer, whether through Windows itself or
through some tools and programs available on the Internet. But both of these
methods are among the fastest ways to do the job.
Find out the speed of the ram
The turn came to talk about the method of knowing the
speed of the RAM in the computer, and there are also two quick ways to do so.
The first method:

In this method we use CMD. Same, click on the Windows sign + R shortcut to open the RNU menu. Then, type cmd and hit the Enter button. Then, copy the above command and paste it into the CMD screen and click on the Enter button, and you will notice that the RAM frequency appears. For example, my computer has two RAMs, each with a speed of 1333 Mhz.
