- A computer’s RAM stands for Random Access Memory.
- It is a form of computer memory that can be read and changed in any order.
- RAM makes data easily accessible so that the processor can quickly retrieve it.
- All computers have RAM, as it is one of the fundamental elements of computing.
- RAM can process data faster than a hard disc.
- When we open an application, the computer loads the application into the RAM and takes it out when we close the application.
- There are 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB of RAM available.
- RAM looks like a rectangle-shaped plain chip that is placed inside the CPU.
- There are two types of RAM: static RAM (SRAM) and dynamic RAM (DRAM).
- SRAM uses transistors that preserve the memory as they receive power; DRAM uses capacitors that need to be periodically refreshed with energy.
