Your computer’s RAM (memory)

For desktop computers, memory chips ( RAM) have 3 main types (depending on how old your computer is:-

• DDR (used inside computers which are now very old)
• DDR2 (most computers will have this type)
• DDR3 (the newest type, now widely used)

This picture shows the (subtle) differences between 2 of the types
– meaning that the wrong one won’t even fit !

To find out which are inside your own desktop computer, obtain a FREE report by running a scan at http://www.crucial.com/uk/systemscanner/
