THE RAM: UNDERSTANDING IT

Posted by Unknown Minggu, 28 Oktober 2012 0 komentar

This piece is for those who make use of a computer or a phone and don’t really know what a RAM actually does. Yes for those of us who know, it will do no harm in going over this.

Actually the RAM stands for Random Access Memory. Basically all gadgets have different numbers associated to their RAM which stands for the size of it and that is an indication of a function to what the particular gadget can be put to. That shall be a subject for another day.

Now picture the RAM as the surface of a table and let the table size be associated with the RAM size. For the bigger the size of a table the more things it can accommodate and more things can be done on it. The same goes for the RAM on a PC, mobile phone and tablet and any other device that has one.

On a mobile phone or tablet when an application is installed, part of it is installed on the RAM and the other on the phone memory card. As more applications are installed so does the RAM available diminishes and as it diminishes the phone or tablet response time increases and that is when you start complaining about your gadget being slow.

On a PC or laptop a bigger RAM size is a delight as it enables the user indulge in heavy tasks and also enjoy fast response. A small RAM is not suitable for heavy users and by heavy users I refer to those who use a lot of graphic applications,entertainment, gaming etc. Also when browsing the internet, opening so many windows at a time tends to slow and in a worst case freeze the system entirely.

Someone might want to ask the various RAM sizes available. RAM sizes vary from as low as 8 MB to 16 GB. The bigger the size of RAM the more expensive the device that carries it. The catch here is the ability to know what one intends to use his or her device for. Purchasing an expensive device that packs a large RAM and under utilizing it is not only a shame but a waste of resources. I believe most gadgets users should be able to tell their retailers what they intend to use their system for and be guided on what is best for them.
