DDR3 memory provides at least twice the bandwidth of DDR2, with data transfer rates at up to 1.6Gb/s and beyond. This enables much-improved 3D graphics, which directly benefits users of Windows 7. DDR3 not only allows for higher system performance, but it also uses only 1.5V/1.35V of power compared to DDR2's 1.8V, thereby reducing power consumption.
