THE EASIEST WAY TO

UPGRADE YOUR PC

UPGRADE YOUR RAM

UNLOCK YOUR 50 SERIES GPU

NVIDIA’s new 50 series GPUs are changing the game—literally—for PC users in search of unparalleled graphical fidelity, application performance, and manipulation of large datasets. With upgraded RAM, your 50 series GPU can access more data faster, leading to smoother gameplay, higher frame rates, and fewer bottlenecks across all applications.

UNDERSTANDING RAM

DIFFERENT WAYS TO UPGRADE

MAKING THE JUMP TO DDR5 RAM

Switching to DDR5 RAM—the newest type of RAM—will improve your PC’s performance in everything from gaming to multitasking. To make the jump, you’ll also have to switch to a DDR5-compatible motherboard.

MAXIMIZE YOUR DDR4 RAM

You don’t have to switch over DDR5 to reap the rewards of better RAM. If you’re still using DDR3 or certain DDR4 RAM, you’ll find plenty of top-end, plug-and-play DDR4 options to top out your PC performance.

RAM CAPACITY

Measured in gigabytes (GB), RAM capacity refers to the amount of data your RAM can store for quick access—saving your processor from pulling that same data from your hard drive. Larger capacity means larger applications (and more of them) can run smoothly without performance compromises.

RAM SPEED

Measured mostly in megahertz (MHz) and megatransfers per second (MT/s), RAM speed refers to the rate at which your RAM transfers the data to your processor. More speed means more processing efficiency, leading to shorter load times, seamless multitasking, and improved gaming.

WHAT IS RAM?

Short for “Random Access Memory,” RAM can be thought of as your computer’s short-term memory. It’s the place where your PC temporarily stores data for quick (random) access to tackle everyday tasks like loading applications, browsing the internet, or running the latest games.

WHAT CAN RAM DO FOR YOU?

With today’s advances in RAM capacity and speed—as well as the arrival of a new generation of RAM, DDR5 RAM—you have more options than ever to push your PC’s performance to the limit. More capacity means more applications can be handled simultaneously, more speed means those applications with load and run faster.
