Increasing your RAM will make a major difference. Each program you run requires a specific amount of RAM usage at one time. The more RAM a user has will cause the computer to run more smoother, and should make programs open up faster. Each RAM stick has a sector that holds all physical activity, so increasing the RAM will make the RAM usage not switch as often since you'll have more to use.
Another answer:
Actually, it depends. Increasing RAM will only help things indirectly unless you were very low to begin with. What RAM does is allow more information to be held in memory so the hard drive won't have to be accessed as much. If you are after speed, upgrading the processor chip should help. More RAM and a faster hard drive should also.
You can't. Additional ram must be physically installed.
Virtual memory
Depending on what your PSU wattage is, otherwise no.
It is possible to increase the amount of RAM on your computer through an upgrade. These upgrades would be able to increase your RAM by a few Gigabytes.
That's called 'virtual' memory. The computer 'borrows' some unused hard-disc space to supplement the built-in RAM
There are various things you can do to upgrade (improve) your computer. One of the easiest (and you'll see a difference) is to add more memory (RAM).
One way to improve your computer's performance is to upgrade its RAM (Random Access Memory) for faster processing speed and better multitasking capabilities.
A computer's RAM can only be increased by installing more memory modules. For a computer that already has the maximum allowed amount, one can improve performance by running fewer programs at the same time.
RAM speed is how fast your computer goes. The more RAM, the faster your computer.
RAM ( random access memory)
The amount of RAM depends on the computer.
Not ROM - RAM... Increasing the amount of RAM (Random Access Memory) gives the computer more 'workspace' to use - speeding up operations.
