8GB RAM Pc3l-12800

1. 8GB RAM: This indicates the capacity of the memory module. In this case, it has 8 gigabytes (GB) of random-access memory (RAM). RAM is a type of volatile computer memory that is used to store data that the computer is currently using or processing. Having more RAM generally allows a computer to handle more applications and tasks simultaneously without slowing down.
2. PC3L-12800: This is a specification that provides information about the type and speed of the RAM module.

• PC3L: This part of the specification indicates the type of RAM. PC3L is a low-voltage DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3) RAM. DDR3 is an older generation of RAM, and PC3L specifically refers to low-voltage DDR3, which operates at a lower voltage compared to standard DDR3. Lower voltage can be more energy-efficient and produce less heat.
• 12800: This part of the specification refers to the speed of the RAM module. Specifically, PC3L-12800 RAM operates at a speed of 12800 megatransfers per second (MT/s). In terms of MHz, this speed is equivalent to 1600 MHz. This is the data transfer rate or clock speed at which the RAM can read and write data.
