A RAM (Random Access Memory) is the short-term memory of a computer, storing data and instructions the processor needs while running. It's essential for smooth multitasking and quick performance. Without it, tasks would be extremely slow.
Choosing the right RAM:
Check how many slots your laptop supports (usually two)
Use RAM sticks from the same manufacturer with matching capacities.
Example: Upgrading from 8 GB to 16 GB means installing two matching 8 GB sticks.
Mixing brands or mismatched sizes can reduce performance or waste your upgrade.
