What happens when you install 3 good RIMM's into a system?

When you install three good RIMM (Rambus Inline Memory Module) modules into a compatible system, the system will recognize the memory and utilize it to enhance performance. However, for optimal functionality, the motherboard must support RIMM configurations, and they should ideally be installed in pairs or in accordance with the motherboard's specifications. If the system supports triple-channel memory, it may take full advantage of the additional bandwidth offered by three RIMMs. Otherwise, the system will operate with the available memory while potentially underutilizing the available RIMM modules.


Why would you have problems with a system in which you installed three known good RIMMs?

All RIMM slots must be filled either with RIMM modules or CRIMM modules."23. Fill 'er up. Leaving a memory slot empty is not a problem as long as you install DIMMs. If you install RIMMs in your system, however, then you need to make sure every slot is full. No, you don't have to buy more of the pricey Rambus memory modules; simply use a pair of CRIMMs (continuity RIMMs), as they're called, to plug the empty memory slots on the motherboard. You can buy CRIMMs for $10 to $15 each from computer retailers. Failing to fill empty Rambus memory slots with CRIMMs will result in a computer that doesn't boot."Taken from http://www.smartcomputing.com/editorial/article.asp?article=articles/archive/l0909/27l09/27l09.asp&guid=


What is full from of RAM?

RAM in computing terms stands for Random Access Memory.


Name two characteristics of a system using rambus licensed memory?

RAMBUS memory is on a stick of RAM called a RIMM. It is the fastest RAM available but you have to have the hardware to use it. It comes in 184 pin for desktops and 160 pin for laptops. RIMMs are keyed differently than DIMMS so you can't install it in any computer. You are required to install RIMMs in pairs to use the full technology, it has a dual-channel technology. Each RIMM is 64 bits wide, but the RAMBUS alternated between two sticks to increase the speed of data retreival. RDRAM motherboards require that all RIMM slots be populated. Unused pairs of slots need a passive device called a continuity RIMM (CRIMM) installed in each slot to enable the RDRAM system to terminate properly. In other words, you have to buy a blank CRIMM to fill in the slots or it will not work properly on the motherboard.

What is low memory?

When the memory is almost full up.


What is the part of a computer system including memory or storage or devices and the microprocessor that can be used buy a computer program?

Any part of a computer that accesses data randomly is RAM, hence the acronym, "Random Access Memory". This includes the RAM modules and space on the hard drive allocated for a virtual swap file where RAM can be dumped temporarily when it is full and recalled when the data in it is still valid. Once the memory has been used and written or no longer needed, both the RAM modules and the identical data (sometimes) is erased. This is not a data loss, rather the accumulation of needed information for your CPU to process while reading from read only memory (ROM) sources.

What does CL2 in RAM mean?

CL refers to CAS Latency or Column Address Strobe Latency to give it its full title. Basically the figure indicates the performance of the RAM module, the lower the figure the faster the RAM. In Synchronous DRAM this value is given in clock cycles, with Asynchronous DRAM is is given in nanoseconds. Memory modules contain many memory chips. Each of these has memory portions arranged in rows and columns in a rectangular fashion - a bit like individual pigeon holes, each hole contains a portion of memory holding a small amount of data. In particular the CAS Latency value is the time it takes data in any given portion of the memory chips to become available to the modules output - how quickly the memory module gives up its data to the motherboard interface if you like. There are 4 main measurements in evaluating memory performance, CAS latency is generally used as the standard measurement of a memory modules performance but this is not the full story. Row Address to Column Address delay (the time it takes to read the first piece of data), Row Precharge Time, and Row Active Time all indicate different aspects of the memories performance. It's like using the top speed of a car as the only measurement of its performance, a fast top speed doesn't mean a quick 0 - 60? In general terms these are all referred to the memories "timings", lower values are always better..
