Determine RAM clock timing in Windows 10

This can be easily done within PowerShell using the following commands:

Get-WmiObject win32_physicalmemory | Format-Table Manufacturer,Configuredclockspeed,Devicelocator,Capacity,Serialnumber -autosize

This will give the following as output: enter image description here


You can also get this through Command line using the following command:

wmic memorychip get Capacity, MemoryType, Speed, DeviceLocator

..which would give the following output: enter image description here

    How would I determine the RAM clock timing in Windows 10 using wmic memoryChip or related commands in command prompt or else a related, built-in tool.

    I'm not that trusting of third-party software that taps into my system's hardware, so please don't suggest that as a solution.

      it doesn;t look like neither the wmic memoryChip or W32_PhysicalMemory classes has this information, which makes sense since timings a negotiated by the SPD, not the chip itself. TBH, timings aren't important at the windows level; if the SPD can't negotiate them, 'the RAM just doesn't appear to the OS at all.

      I've added some edits to clarify, but in short I meant to say "latency" not "clock timing"... admittedly terminology is not my cup of tea, which is the main issue there! In terms of why latency is important, it is because I need to match two already installed ram modules to utilize dual channel ram.

    This doesn't give the latency, though.
