Sony VGN-AW290J-AH Ram
RAM is necessary in order for your laptop to even boot. Because RAM is only temporary storage for the processor, it does not have the ability to store files such as text documents or movies. Instead, it has a positive impact on the overall speed and quickness of your Sony. RAM stores pieces of data that the processor uses for executing commands. The speed of the RAM is imposed within the specs of the motherboard, while the size is dictated by the system software. RAM is considered volatile memory as all the data it holds gets blanked out every time your turn the computer off. If you are unsure about the size of the RAM to buy, just know that it is impossible to have too much RAM!
