2gb of ram is basically the amount of things you pc can do at a time and how well it doed it 2GB is very good and it would be hard to use all of this if you were not trying to.


2GB memory

means 2 GB

random access memory

, the

computer processor

works on data when it is in memory, so when the computer is working and it needs to process certain data it loads that data from the hard drive into the memory where it can process it really quickly. When finished it puts the data block back on the hard drive and takes the next required block of data, repeating this until it has completed all of its processing steps.



Having 2GB means it can take and process data in bigger blocks and consequently this improves performance. This process is called paging and is why the memory is called random access memory.

One gigabyte of RAM converted into bytes equals approximately 1073741824 bytes. There are many websites that offer online conversion calculators that convert gigs to bytes. Convert Units and Unit Conversion are two websites that offer this service free of charge.

Will 2gb of ram speed up a windows xp computer?

Yes. It depends on how much you have already, and what is the size of the working set. The working set is the amount of "most recently used ram". (Amongst processes that are actively using the CPU.) If this amount is less than available ram, you are going to have excessive swap activity, which (using the disk) is very, very, very much slower than ram. If you already have 2gb of ram, then adding 2gb of ram will boost performance somewhat. If you already have only 256mb ram, then adding 2gb of ram will boost performance dramatically.
