I am currently building a pc and I was wondering how a 16gb stick of ram would be pc3 12800
If the bandwidth is 12.8 gb for the ram then why would I get a stick that is 16 gb isn't it useless
For example if I have a 16gb stick of ram with the specification 1600 and PC3 12800 then wouldn't the peak data transfer rate be 12.8 gb and therefore the remaining gb on the 16gb stick be useless.
