What kind of speeds you get on that old DDR3?

I'm not sure - I don't measure it. It's in my home server running Linux. It does everything I want and is >90% idle most of the time - so it's fast enough. And I just realized I lied in my original comment - my laptop has DDR4 RAM, but it's already at max. capacity so I won't have to worry about buying more.
