How To Check Free Ram Slots Online

How could I easily find out total number of memory slot in used and the memory size of each RAM module in the RAM slot, without open up computer casing?
The answer is to command the power of WMI in Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line (WMIC) utility!
WMIC is bundled with Windows XP and above (including the latest Windows 7). For those who are not using Windows XP and above, try to look for motherboard / memory utilities. Please share if you know of any.

I know there are 4GB RAM in my Core 2 Duo Desktop at home, but I can’t remember how many memory module or the size of each RAM installed to the memory slots.
I try to download the latest ASUS PC Probe II V1.04 (for P5B-Plus Vista Edition motherboard) but it does not work with Windows 7 64-bit, as ASUS driver download site said it works up to Windows Vista 64-bit :-(
Of course open the casing and take a look is not much effort, but why I have to do “dirty work” if there is an easier way to find out in no time?
So, here is this WMIC command I used to find out the number of RAM slot in used and the size of each RAM module in the memory slots.
1) Open the Command Prompt window and execute the following sample. I have tested this sample in both Windows 7 and Windows Vista and confirm there is no need of using Command Prompt with elevated privilege.
2) Run this WMIC command
The easiest way of remember this WMIC command is simply type wmic /? to find out more information. For this particular case, you can shorten the WMIC command for a lengthy output, e.g. wmic memorychip output all information related to memory detected by WMI.
As you can see, there is no need to install additional program, writing a Windows Shell Script or PowerShell script, etc. If you’re using Windows XP and above, the bundled WMIC does the job well.

  1. re: Use WMI To Find Out RAM Slot In Used And Memory Size Of Each Slot…not work with my XP SP3. I got ”MEMORYCHIP -Alias not found” and verified that no such alias by enquiry with “wmic /?”

  2. This worked awesome on my X64 Windows 7 Laptop. Nice work. I can’t believe I have been an admin for so long and never ran across this command. Thanks.

  3. I couldnt find “MEMORYCHIP” searching through wmic /? … some help please!

  4. Awsome !
    I’m developing a C++ app. to connect WMI, then
    I used this as a reference to query cimv2 namespace, knowing the expected result for each device polled.
    Thanks

  5. WMIC MEMORYCHIP shows only RAM slot in use. But how to show all RAM slots with their maximum available capacity?

  6. You rock man. it works for win7 64bit.

    Thanks,

    Michael

  7. Hi, in which unit is the capacity displayed? Thanks Dawie

    works like a charm

  10. Nice! No additional SW to install!

    Ravi.

  11. Thank you Walker! Great command!

    The best part is not having to reboot a user’s machine just to check the BIOS for this information.

  12. I agree with Zdzich that how to find free slots of server that command only shows used slots.

  13. wmic memphysical get memorydevices

    shows the number of memory slots. Just deduct the number of used slots then you’ll find the remaining available unused slots.

    To find out which slot is being used by memory cards installed, use this command:

    wmic memorychip get capacity, devicelocator

    Good luck!

  14. Awesome! Just what I was looking for. This gives me lots of programming ideas with WMIC, too!
    Thanks man!!
