DDR3 System Memory

The first DDR brought forth the capability of running at 400 Mhz, then DDR 2 came along and doubled to a speed of 800 Mhz. Well now our system memory can run at the sleek new speed of 1600 Mhz. The advantage of this should be rather obvious. For example, four times faster loading screens for all you gamerz out there. This new development should prove to be an important step to creating perfect computer performance.

Will DDR4 bring forth clock speeds of 3200 Mhz?

you got that right. For you, personally, the upgrade would infact be eight times better than your crrect memory solution.

Hehe, alright well let's set you straight on this. DDR stands for Double Data Rate. SDRAM stands for Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory. So the full name for DDR is really DDRSDRAM. Which I just told you the name of. Now since DDR stands for DOUBLE Data Rate then I'm sure you can figure out what SDR stands for. That's right, SINGLE Data Rate. Therefore the actually frequency of, say, DDR 400 RAM is only 200 Mhz, BUT it has a double data rate; meaning it transfers data at 400 Mhz. I'll go ahead and add this too, just because I'm sure it'll come up sometime. The reason RAM has a PC rating is because that's how many MB/s can be transfered through the RAM. Therefore, PC 3200 RAM can transfer 3.2 GB/s. All make sense now? :)
