If you want to check the details of your RAM in Windows 10 or earlier version, you can use these methods. The command line is the easiest way to get the RAM details like memory type, speed, size, frequency, etc. For quick information about RAM, use Task Manager as well. However, this offers limited detail. Let's find out how to check this with a simple method!
Easy way to check RAM details using CMD on Windows
There are two ways to check the details of RAM from the command line. Let's look at each one:
Using the system info command
1) Press Windows key, type command prompt and select Run as administrator .
2) At the command prompt, type the following command and press Enter
system info | findstr /C: 'Total physical memory'3) It takes a fraction of a second and displays the total amount of RAM available in your Windows system.
Bonus Tips:
To check the available physical memory in MB, type at the command line and press Enter :
systeminfo | find "Available Physical Memory"Check the RAM details using the WMIC command
1) Press the Windows logo and R keys at the same time , type cmd and press <Enter
2) Type, copy and paste the following command
- where BankLabel identifies your RAM. This is in numeric form.
- Capacity shows the memory or byte capacity of each RAM on your system.
- DeviceLocator is displayed The name of the location (of a slot or channel) where the system's RAM is installed. The syntax
- MemoryType gives information about the RAM type of the system in numeric form. To understand which value corresponds to which type of RAM, below is the list for the same:
0 = Unknown
1 = Other
2 = DRAM
3 = Synchroner DRAM
4 = Cache-DRAM
5 = EDO
6 = EDRAM
7 = VRAM
8 = SRAM
9 = RAM
10 = ROM
11 = Flash
12 = EEPROM
13 = FEPROM
14 = EPROM
15 = CDRAM
16 = 3DRAM
17 = SDRAM
18 = SGRAM
19 = RDRAM
20 = DDR
21 = DDR2
22 = DDR2 FB-DIMM
24 = DDR3
25 = FBD2
If your memory type value shows as 21, it means your system's RAM type is DDR2.
- Typedetail displays the type of physical storage your system is installed on. It is also in numeric form and each value corresponds to a different type. Below are the values and the corresponding types:
1 = Reserved
2 = Other
4 = Unknown
8 = Fast
16 = Static column
32 = pseudostatic
64 = RAMBUS
128 = sync
256 = CMOS
512 = EDO
1024 = Window DRAM
2048 = Cache-DRAM
4096 = Non-Volatile
If the type detail value shows as 128 in the prompt, its physical memory type is synchronous.
- Speed shows the memory frequency in MegaHertz (MHz).
You can also view other details about the memory modules by typing the following command and then pressing Enter:
