Just need it clarified with some references if possible, when I buy 2GB DDR2 RAM. Is the GB measured as gigabyte or gigabit?

2 Answers

They use 1024 mebibyte Gibibytes (what we classically consider proper megabytes and gigabytes) (unlike the metric gigabytes hard drive manufacturers use)

Gigabyte. Gigabit is generally used as a unit in video game ROM size, and in network speed, and should generally be Gb, not GB.
