💡 What Is RAM and Why It Matters


Ever wonder why your computer slows down when too many apps are open? That’s where RAM (Random Access Memory) comes in.


RAM is your computer’s short-term memory. It stores the data and instructions your system needs right now so it can access them quickly. Think of it as a workspace: the more space you have, the more tasks you can juggle at once—without dropping the ball.


📌 Why RAM is important:


Faster performance with multiple apps

Smoother multitasking

Better experience when editing photos/videos or playing games

Supports modern web browsing (hello, 20 open tabs!)


If your system feels slow, low RAM might be the reason. Upgrading it is often one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to boost performance.
