Buying the right RAM
RAM types are not interchangeable, so confirm what your motherboard or laptop takes before comparing speed and capacity.
DDR4 or DDR5
DDR4 and DDR5 sticks have different notches and do not fit each other's slots. Your motherboard or laptop supports one type only.
Desktop or laptop
Desktops use full-size DIMMs; laptops use shorter SODIMMs. Many thin laptops have soldered RAM that cannot be upgraded.
Kits and speed
Two matched sticks run in dual channel and are noticeably faster than one. Enable XMP (Intel) or EXPO (AMD) in the BIOS to run at the rated speed.
Common questions about ram memory
Can I mix different RAM sticks?
It often works, but all sticks drop to the slowest speed and timings, and some mixes are unstable. A matched kit is the reliable choice.
How much RAM do I need?
16 GB for everyday use and gaming, 32 GB for heavy gaming with streaming or video editing, 64 GB or more for 3D work and virtual machines.
