Are DIMM and RAM the same thing?

Understanding random access memory (RAM) Essentially, a DIMM is a type of RAM module that uses a specific type of pin connector to add multiple RAM chips to a computer system in such a way that efficiently increases central processing unit (CPU), data transfer and throughput speeds without increasing power consumption.

What does so DIMM mean?

Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module A SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module) is a memory module with a smaller outline and thickness than standard DIMM modules and designed primarily for notebook computers.

Is DIMM DDR3 or DDR4?

Physically, a DDR4 module, or dual in-line memory module (DIMM), looks very similar to a DDR3 DIMM. However, DDR4 has 288 pins compared with DDR3's 240 pins; DDR4 SO-DIMMS have 260 pins instead of 204 in DDR3.

What is meant by DIMM?

What is it? DIMM stands for dual in-line memory module; more commonly, it is called a RAM stick. It is a long, thin strip of printed circuit board containing RAM (random access memory) chips, with pins that connect it directly to a motherboard.

A dual in-line memory module (DIMM) is a common type of computer memory modular hardware used in desktops, laptops and servers consisting of multiple random access memory chips (RAM) on a single printed circuit board.
