Before buying a computer memory update, it's important to understand the capabilities of your system. Understanding the differences between DDR3, DDR4 and DDR5 will help you pick a product that's right for you and your computer. For example, investing in a memory upgrade with a clock speed higher than what your PC can support, will not have the desired speed and efficiency benefits you're looking for.

For general use, such as web browsing, email, and light productivity tasks, 8GB of RAM is typically sufficient. However, if you are into gaming, 16GB is generally recommended, as it allows you to run modern games smoothly. On the other hand, if you are playing AAA games while doing background tasks like streaming, or playing music, you may want to upgrade to 32GB for peak gaming performance. For more demanding activies like video editing, 3D redendering, or running virtual machines, 32Gb or more is advisable. This ensures your system can manage large files, multiple applications, and resource-internsive processes without any significant lag.
