Are you looking to upgrade your computer RAM but unsure of what is the maximum capacity and speed of RAM that your computer motherboard can support? Well, fret not, we have got you covered in this tutorial.
To begin with, open the command prompt in Windows by typing “cmd” in the start menu search bar and clicking on the “Command Prompt” option to open it. Now, type the command “get” to get the details of your computer RAM that is already installed into your motherboard. This command will show you the capacity and speed of RAM installed in your computer motherboard.
You can also check the amount of RAM installed in your computer motherboard by simply going to the properties of your computer. Go to your computer file explorer, right-click and select “Properties” to see the amount of RAM that is installed in your computer.
It is important to note that if you want to upgrade more than 4GB of RAM, you should have installed 64-bit operating systems. If you have 32-bit operating systems, then you can install only 4GB of RAM even if your computer motherboard supports 16GB or 8GB. So, remember to first check your computer operating system whether it’s a 32-bit or 64-bit one.
To find out the maximum amount of RAM that is supported by your computer motherboard, type the command “wmic memphysical maxcapacity” in the command prompt and press enter. This will show you the maximum capacity of the RAM that is supported by your computer motherboard.
Another way to find out the type and speed of RAM in Windows 10 is to open the Task Manager by pressing “Ctrl + Shift + Escape”. In the “Performance” tab, you will have details of the RAM installed in your computer motherboard.
