Computer Memory

The computer memory is a physical device used to store data or programs for use in a computer. Some types of computer memory include RAM (random access memory), ROM (read-only memory), and page cache.

What are three considerations when choosing memory for your computer?

The frequency level of your motherboard should be large enough to runÊa standardÊRAM. Its manufacturer should be a reliable company that has shown a history of manufacturing RAM for computers. Size level should be at least 4GB for computers that run a lot of graphics.

What is Tolerance-fading memory?

It is a condition with little or poor tolerance for background sounds

What are two types of RAm?

DDR which is old and DDR2 is the most widely used. The DDR stands for Double Data Rate. DDR3 is next.

Command to show information about RAM?

By using freeware utility called CPU-Z by which I find out many useful information about my computer's CPU, mother board and RAM.

Specify the number of registers in a 2k memory chip?

1kb=1024 byte is multiply by the total memory which is given to you as bellow:

(1024*2) = 2048 register

What is the difference between minimum and recommended RAM?

Minimum is the amount you need just to use it. Recommended is the amount it is advised you have for best performance.

How long can information stored electronically?

information on the electronic device remain stored till the device is not switched off or it remain stored till the device has capability to refresh it self at the regular intervals.

How many gigabytes are in a Carl Sagan byte?

According to wikipedia: "sagan has been defined as a unit of measurement equal to at least four billion, since the smallest number that may be described as billions and billions must be two billion plus two billion".

According to google calculator: "four billion bytes = 3.7252903 gigabytes".

So sagan byte is at least 3.7252903 gigabytes.

How does virtual memory optimize performance of your operating system?

It allows hard disk space to be used as RAM

It acts as an overflow buffer for the physically available

What is the concept of DDR - 3?

DDR3 (Double Data Rate, 3 channel) is the next generation of SDRAM. It has transfer rates twice as fast as DDR2 at the same clock speed. and the new technology allows for a maximum stick size of 8Gb meaning a maximum module size of 16Gb. It is not compatible with DDR2.

Why DRAM is commonly used as main memory?

Access speed. Read/writes per second. Memory is, as with all technology, in constant metamorphosis. You have DRam, SDram, DDR, DDR2, DDR3, and several others. Its all about what mhz they operate at. The higher the frequency, the faster the access. The newer stuff is not only faster, but uses less energy and has higher capacity due to increasingly efficient nano-technology (ie: the size and spacing of the circuit paths).

If we were to use a physical media such as a hdd for main memory, even with today's uber-fast sata drives, you'd be surprised at how much slower it would run. Thank the techno-gurus that we're long past having to pull out a half dozen 5.25 floppies just to get our computer booted up and load a program or two, all on a monochrome/green monitor, with a whopping 16k of slug memory!

What is parity checking used for?

Parity checking is used as a way to ensure data integrity and prevent errors, or detect them in the event they are occuring.

How do you write to your SD card attached to your card readerwriter?

check the properties of the card and check if it is writable/readable.

Is BitDefender a Memory-Hog?

Answer

Memory hog is a subjective term because what is memory intensive to me is not necessarily memory intensive to you. However, a number of users report major changes in system performance after installing BitDefender. If you are also seeing your computer slowing down then uninstall BitDefender and install another anti-malware program. I recommend Avast Free Antivirus. It is important to note your computer slowing down can be due to a number of issues not related to BitDefender.

How about ddr2 ramm for laptops into the old slots for ddr theya re both 200 pin so they should fit but would they work?

The DDR2 chips will not work in older DDR slots. Different power requirements, different notch placement.

What is CPU alu and mu cu?

First of all CPU Is a term used to describe Central Processing Unit and that is also known as the Processor. Alu - Arithmetic Logic Unit is the same as Maths Calculation except it is related for the Computer term as to how the processor works. i will write about it more later on today enough for now.
