    Re: How many watts does DDR3 RAM consume?

    The supply of voltage for the memory 1.8 volts for DDR2. Now the advanced technology reduced the supply of voltage just 1.5 volts for DDR3 .The voltage reduction limits the amount of power that is consumed and heat that is generated in connection with the increase in bandwidths. It does not consume so much voltage.for example An old, slow stick of RAM, that may produce hardly any heat, would consume considerably-less power than a new stick of DDR2-800.

    How much the power consume by DDR3 RAM

    The voltage consumption is all depends on how much heat the particular RAM generate. If we supply electricity something like RAM or a CPU, generally it will use hardly any amps, until such time as it is "allowed" to produce heat, that is when it starts dragging in more and more amps, as the electricity is escaping as thermal power.RAM uses roughly 10W a stick, pretty miniscule compared to CPU/video card power requirements.But now technology go advanced so the power consumption by RAM get decrease.
