Lenovo ThinkCentre 8473 Ram
Some RAM is mandatory even for your desktop to boot up. Random Access Memory, RAM, stores small bits of data for the CPU to use for programs. RAM is considered temporary storage as all the data it holds gets erased when the system shuts down. 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 overall speed and quickness of your Lenovo. The clock speed of the RAM is governed by the specifications from the motherboard, and the minimum storage size is dictated by the system software. If there is ever a doubt, remember that you can never have too much RAM.
