Explanation: Buffered memory is used in computers that have a lot of RAM such as servers and high-end workstations. Buffered memory should be avoided in gaming, business, and home computers because it slows the memory speed.
What is buffered in memory?
Buffered Memory is a memory that has a register between your DRAM (a random-access memory storing each bit of data) modules and your system's memory controller (contains logic necessary to write and read to DRAM). It is used for less electrical load on your memory controller and make it more stable.
Why is an buffer memory a better choice than buffer memory for gaming or general use computers?
The additional control circuitry on the unbuffered RAM module speeds up memory reads. The computer can read data directly from the unbuffered memory banks, making unbuffered memory faster than buffered memory. Buffered memory cannot support the larger quantities of RAM that are necessary for gaming computers.
