Basicly a bus is a circuit that connects one part of the motherboard to another, in this case the memory connection.

Define a system bus in a PC?
The bus between the CPU and memory on the motherboard. Also called the memory bus, front-side bus, local bus, or host bus.
What is the memory speed of a DDR PC-2700 memory module?
333 MHz
Does the CPU determine how much Ram the PC can use?
More often it is the motherboard which determines the Memory which can be in a PC.
Can i put PC 533 with PC 667 memory in one computer?
Yes but it will run at the lower speed.
What device enables a PC to retrieve a specific row of data from system memory and place it on the external data bus?
Memory Controller Chip
Is it OK to replace a 256MB-PC266 RAM with 2 pieces of 256MB-PC2700 RAM without changing any settings?
No. PC 266 and PC2700 refer to your bus speed, how fast information is passed through the computer. Your computer can only work as fast as its bus. If your bus speed is 256, no matter what the rated speed of the memory you put in, it will only pass information at the rated speed of the computer. Having said that, it is possible to "over clock" your bus. I don't recommend that, so I will only say that if you want to do that, Google the information.
What exactly is a PC 6400 memory card?
The PC 6400 memory card is for the RAM in ones computer. The PC 6400 memory card allows one to upgrade the speed one's computer operates at. Higher RAM makes a computer quicker to process information.
How can you increase the speed of your PC?
Besides preforming computer maintenance to remove unwanted files and programs it is sometimes the internet connection speed that is slowing you down. Also by adjusting the memory voltage will increse a PC's speed.
Does installing a 4GB 400Mhz RAM increase the performance of PC?
only increasing the RAM will not improve the Performance of the PC. Increasing the Ram will help the system with little more space for opening the temporary files in the Memory. This improves the Stability & not the Speed. Performance is something based on the BUS speed of Processor, Ram, Motherboard & Hard Disk. (Performance is a combination of all the above.)
How can one upgrade the memory of your PC?
If one is finding that it is necessary to upgrade the memory of one's PC one must first find out how much memory the computer has and how much is needed. One then can determine how much memory can be added and it would then be installed by putting into the slots that are available for RAM. For more detailed information for Windows based PC's one can view the Microsoft website.
What is the difference between asynchronous dram and synchronous dram?
Conventional DRAM, of the type that has been used in PCs since the original IBM PC days, is said to be asynchronous. This refers to the fact that the memory is not synchronized to the system clock. A memory access is begun, and a certain period of time later the memory value appears on the bus. The signals are not coordinated with the system clock at all, as described in the section discussing memory access. Asynchronous memory works fine in lower-speed memory bus systems but is not nearly as suitable for use in high-speed (>66 MHz) memory systems. A newer type of DRAM, called "synchronous DRAM" or "SDRAM", is synchronized to the system clock; all signals are tied to the clock so timing is much tighter and better controlled. This type of memory is much faster than asynchronous DRAM and can be used to improve the performance of the system. It is more suitable to the higher-speed memory systems of the newest PCs.
Is it better to have four memory cards in a computer or just two?
If referring to Memory (RAM), then yes, it is better to have more memory in your PC as this will speed it up. Although it will use slightly more power (not much).
