Frankly, the average customer does not need to be concerned with RAM speed. If he doesn't know, he doesn't need fast RAM. RAM capacity on the other hand is something everyone needs to care about, because having insufficient RAM brings the entire computer to a screeching halt. Being blunt, I consider it a travesty that computer vendors are selling machines with 8GB of RAM today. 16GB is the new minimum for practical use, with how bloated Windows, Chrome, and honestly everything is getting. Don't get me started any further on why we even need at least 16 gigabytes of RAM to do the same things we were doing with 16 megabytes back in the day. Bloody insane, this timeline is.
