To answer this question adequately, one must understand that information (on "computer chips", such as RAM, anyways) is kept using electrical charges, which are usually held in place by a battery of some sort. RAM does not have a battery, so it can only keep information until you turn off and/or unplug the computer. Also, since RAM is somewhat limited in size, it can only keep information until it is overwritten with new information. So if you do not turn off your computer, the time which it takes for the information on RAM to be overwritten (removed) will depend on A:the time you leave your computer on,
B:your operating system (and the amount of background activity associated with it)
C:how much stuff you do on your computer in any given time,
and
D: the amount of RAM you have in your computer.
