What is RAM?

Data for applications not in use, when the device’s power is off on the other hand, is stored on the hard drive.

Your computer’s speed depends on its RAM capacity. It can slow down if there isn’t enough for your processor to perform the tasks you need it to. Therefore, depending on whether you tend to spend more time pouring over excel sheets at work, or gaming, or maybe video and photo editing, ensure you have devices suited to the same with RAM capacities typically between 1GB and 8GB. Devices on the more premium end of the market also have RAM capacities going up to 16GB and 32GB. However, it is always suggestible to have more than the minimum amount of RAM according to your usage, since your PC/smartphone also runs other applications in the background, including its OS.
