Gateway GM5643E Ram
Having the RAM installed is mandatory in order for a computer to even boot. The speed of the RAM is dictated by the specifications from the motherboard, while the actual storage size is determined by the OS. Due to the fact that RAM is temporary storage for the processor, it does not hold files like text documents or movies. But, it does have a correlation to the speed of your desktop. The RAM in your computer stores random bits of information that the processor uses for programs. RAM is considered volatile memory as all the data it holds gets erased when the system shuts down. If you are ever in doubt, remember that bigger is always better!
