resonator. n. 1. (Electronics) any body or system that displays resonance, esp a tuned electrical circuit or a conducting cavity in which microwaves are generated by a resonant current.. resonator-a hollow chamber whose dimensions allow the resonant oscillation of electromagnetic or acoustic waves. cavity resonator, resonating chamber. chamber-a natural or artificial enclosed space. soundbox, body-a resonating chamber in a musical instrument (as the body of a violin).
The other method of classifying the modules is by their bandwidth rating in megabytes per second. 1600MHz memory can run at a theoretically speed of 12.8 gigabytes per second or 12,800 megabytes per second.
To know a what speed your memory is running at you need to download CPU-Z, go to the Memory tab and look at the memory speed. THEN, you will have to multiply by 2 or 3 if your RAM is either dual or triple channel. DDR2 doesn't mean dual channel and DDR3 doesn't mean triple channel.
