About DDR3 1066MHz SODIMM
DDR3 1066MHz SODIMM is a type of low-medium speed RAM that is still widely used in older generation laptops or devices with limited specifications. With the SODIMM (Small Outline Dual In-line Memory Module) form factor, this module is specifically designed for compact devices such as notebooks and mini PCs. The configuration in this test uses two pieces of RAM from different brands, ADATA and Micron, each with a capacity of 2GB, bringing the total memory to 4GB in single-channel mode.
Although the RAM modules have a native frequency of 1600MHz, the system sets the speed limit to 1066MHz due to the limitations of the AMD E1-1200 processor used in the HP 1000 1b05AU laptop. This is a clear example of how RAM speed also depends on CPU and motherboard architecture support. The memory timings were recorded at 7-7-7-19, which indicates a fairly tight latency configuration for the entry-level DDR3 class, providing a balance between stability and efficiency.
Tests were conducted in Windows 7 and Windows 8 operating systems, which are quite common on devices with these specifications. Based on synthetic performance testing using PYPrime 2B (via BenchMate), the completion time was recorded at 2 minutes 3 seconds 3 milliseconds, reflecting the system's capability in handling light to medium computing workloads. Meanwhile, a benchmark using AIDA64 showed a Memory Read score of 5529 points, which is quite good for this class of frequency-limited DDR3 RAM.
Overall, this combination of DDR3 1066MHz SODIMMs with a total capacity of 4GB is still reliable for running light operating systems, browsing, and other basic computing tasks on older generation laptops. While it can't match the performance of a modern DDR4 or DDR5, this RAM is still relevant for users who want to revive an older laptop for light use or simply as a backup device. With its affordable price and wide availability in the market, DDR3 SODIMM is a great choice for a cost-effective and functional upgrade.
