Lenovo ThinkCentre 5042 Ram
RAM is necessary in order for your desktop to run. The clock speed of the RAM is governed by the specs of the motherboard, while the size is guided by the operating system. RAM is actually volatile memory as the data it holds is erased every time you turn your desktop off. Your desktop RAM stores random bits of information that the processor uses for executing commands. Due to the fact that RAM is temporary storage for the CPU, it does not have the ability to store files such as documents or pictures. But, it will affect the speed of your desktop. If you are ever in doubt, remember that bigger is always better!
How do you know when your stick of RAM is about to stop working?
- Emptiness fills the air when you start your desktop
- The main operating system cannot report the correct RAM size
- The system produces invalid access errors on your desktop as you use it
- The main screen will not turn on when you turn your system on
