Gateway FX530XG Ram
Random Access Memory is considered temporary storage as the data it holds is erased every time your turn the computer off. Because RAM is only temporary storage for the CPU, it does not hold files like picture or movies. Instead, it will impact the speed of the computer. The RAM speed is imposed within the specifications from the motherboard, while the size is governed by the operating system. Having the RAM installed is mandatory even for your desktop to run. RAM stores random bits of data that the processor uses for programs. If you are ever in doubt, remember that you can never have too much RAM.
