While the CPU is the brain of a computer, the memory, or RAM is also an important feature that plays a big part in the performance of the machine.
Many operating systems and programs are now being created to be less hungry for RAM which lets your system run smoother, but the problem is that we now commonly like to run more than one program at once.
To avoid a sluggish computer you need the right amount of RAM to do the job. Most new computers will have a minimum of 4gigabytes or RAM, however systems intended for high-end multimedia or gaming use could easily have 8, 16 or 32gigabytes.
With most computers you can easily upgrade RAM yourself, after dong a bit of research to make sure you buy the correct RAM modules. If you’re not sure exactly what to buy in this area, don’t worry there’s a website HERE that can scan your system (yes it’s safe) to find out all you need to know.
Happy upgrading!
