The type of RAM that a desktop computer uses depends upon the design of the specific motherboard that is installed in the computer. Refer to the specifications of the motherboard or of the computer manufacturer (i.e. Dell, HP) to determine the proper type of RAM for your computer.
There is two types. There is DDR notebook RAM and there is DDR desktop ram. They can't be used vin each other (notebook RAM can't be used in a desktop) unless (in rare circumstances) you happen to have a notebook ram port on your desktop's motherboard. But no, DDR is a technology. Both desktops and notebooks support this technology because there is notebook DDR and desktop DDR. but notebook DDR can't be put in desktop DDR and vice versa.
The RAM that is used for a laptop is not the same as the RAM that you would use in a desktop PC. The RAM that is used for a PC is much too big to be used in a laptop, so a laptop has to use a much smaller RAM card which is called SD-RAM.
The product Compaq Proliant 1600R is a PC ram upgrade which can be used in laptop or desktop computer and can be purchased from Newegg or Amazon as well.
Do you mean the difference between RAM and ROM? If that is what you meant then ROM is what is used to read discs that are put into the computer, but RAM is used to temporarily hold memory from desktop and web based applications.
RAM is only used to run any desktop base applications, such as games, Microsoft Word applications, games such as desktop games and PC games, and browser based applications such as Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome etc.
Some examples of Random Access Memory (RAM) include: DDR4: A type of RAM commonly used in desktop computers and high-performance laptops. SDRAM: Synchronous Dynamic RAM, a type of RAM used in older computer systems. LPDDR4: Low-Power DDR4, a type of RAM commonly used in mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. SRAM: Static RAM, faster and more expensive than dynamic RAM, often used in cache memory and embedded systems. DDR3: Another type of RAM commonly used in older desktop computers and laptops.
No lol
Ram upgrades are easy to do if the the computer is a desktop. If your computer is a laptop then it will be a lot harder to switch out your ram. However desktop computers are much easy and can be done at home.
A desktop computer with no ram is nothing more than a very expensive paperweight.AnswerNothing will happen until you turn it on, when the BIOS generates an error message.
Run Belarc Advisor to find out what kind of motherboard you have. Then Google it to find out what the maximum RAM it will accept both per-slot & overall. From there, it's just a case of order it & put it in.
No, not usually. Check with your motherboard specifications to see what RAM is needed and the maximum RAM your motherboard can handle.
Yes, you can.
