How to get full PC memory specs (speed, size, type, part number, form factor) on Windows 10

In this post, I gonna show you how to get information about your RAM memory in windows 10.

We just need to run some commands to get information about name, memory size, type, etc. These commands may help you to decide which memory should you buy.

Opening CMD prompt

Press windows+R to open and write cmd:

Executing CMD

This gonna opens the CMD prompt.

Check all memory details

To list all the memory details, then use these steps:

1. Open CMD.
2. Type Command Prompt, right-click the top result, and select the Run as administrator option.
3. Type the following command to view all the memory details and press Enter:

wmic memorychip list full

Full info

Checking all with Command Line

Just type on CMD the following command:

You will get the information about:
- Capacity: the memory size of the RAM (in bytes)
- Device Locator: slots occupied.
- FormFactor: determine whether the modules are DIMM or SODIMM
- Manufacturer: Brand.
- MemoryType: Memory type (in my case appears unknown because mine is DDR4).
- PartNumber: part number of each memory module
- Serial Number: serial number of each memory module
- Speed: Speed of the memory in MHz (in my case, I have 3200 MHz).

wmic memorychip get devicelocator, manufacturer, partnumber, serialnumber, capacity, speed, memorytype, formfactor

Information

Trying CPUZ

You can avoid using this downloading and running CPUZ. You can download the installer here (Windows). Once you installed it, open it, and then you can explore all your information.

Final notes, here there is a list for some commands in the CMD, just to know.
