Detailed explanation-1: -Generally, the faster the RAM, the faster the processing speed. With faster RAM, you increase the speed at which memory transfers information to other components. Meaning, your fast processor now has an equally fast way of talking to the other components, making your computer much more efficient.
Detailed explanation-2: -Opening large applications, software, or files requires a lot of RAM in order to use them efficiently. Upgrading the computer’s memory will increase memory space and thus allow larger programs to run without slowdowns.
Detailed explanation-3: -With more RAM we can afford larger virtual memory size without worrying about thrashing and thus could keep more number of processes in the memory which will increase utilization of CPU and hence its performance.
Detailed explanation-4: -Faster RAM can improve communication speed with the processor and decrease load times. Also, having enough RAM capacity to load the entire operating system and all startup programs will improve load times.
Detailed explanation-5: -If all RAM space is used up when you have many programs open, the computer starts using the virtual memory on the hard drive, slowing down the computer a bit. Additional memory prevents this from happening. You will notice a better PC performance when browsing the internet after a RAM upgrade.
