Finding DDR type of your RAM in Linux Mint

One of the best thing about Linux is that many of the systems integral information aren't hard to find. In Windows you normally need an additional software just to find the type of the processor or RAM you use. This is a simple command with dmidecode on how to use the terminal to find the DDR type of your system RAM in use. The information provided can be used to replace or buy additional RAM for your system.

This is an output of an old system I tried to optimize using Linux Mint. The command is

sudo dmidecode -t memory
# dmidecode 3.0
Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs.
SMBIOS 2.4 present.
