Introduction

RAM is the short term memory storage of your PC and is responsible for allowing your PC to quickly access important information. Faulty RAM may limit your PC’s performance by slowing down the speed at which components can share information.

You may check the current performance of the RAM in your PC by first pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc to bring up Windows Task Manager. Then click the “Performance” tab and select “Memory” in the sidebar. This will display a graph of your RAM usage.
