RAM or Random Access Memory, is the memory that your computer system uses to store the data of all open programs and applications. When the systems boots up, the operating system is loaded into RAM, so a computer can not function without it.

What is a good amount of ram?

A good amount of RAM could be any amount of RAM depending on what the user thinks is a good amount, depending on what they use their computer for. The normal RAM size that is used for a computer is 1 GB which is used to run basic applications on a computer. 2GB-4Gb is the normal size for a computer if you are planning on doing any gaming. In my opinion a good amount of RAM would be about 4 GB of RAM, because with that amount of RAM you can run every program on your computer very efficiently. Anymore more than that will not help you much, unless you do a lot of gaming.
