add memory

What is These are common Bus speeds used in today''s PC''s. runs at 66 MHz, the clock speed of the bus between the CPU and the memory , or Front-Side Bus as it is called. is a faster main memory bus, transferring data at 100MHz. Up until recently, the fastest common PC bus speed has been 66MHz, so PC-100 represents about a 50% theoretical improvement in speed. Tests have shown a typical speed increase of over 20%. PC-133 runs at the bus speed of 133MHz giving an even more pronounced increase in speed. why did my computer slow down after I installed more RAM? In most cases additional RAM improves system performance. However, there are a few rare times when additional RAM actually makes the system slower. The most common reason for the problem is that the system doesn''t have enough cache to handle the addressing for the additional RAM. If this is your case, the only solution is to upgrade your system or motherboard, as cache cannot be upgraded.

what is Rambus Memory? Rambus is a chip to chip interface design that is system wide, allowing up to 800 MHz transfer rates. It allows data transfer through a simplified bus that operates in a high frequency range. Rambus uses a low voltage signal swing with data transfer on both edges of a synchronizing clock pulse. The Intel Pentium IV CPU is designed to take full advantage of this new, extremely fast memory design. What is DDR Memory? DDR memory, or Double Data Rate memory, is an evolutionary new memory technology that doubles the data through put to the processor, or CPU. It is an evolution of SDRAM, which leverages the existing production and environment to provide higher PC performance. What is meant by Registered memory? "Registered" is a means of "Buffering" the memory in SDRAM. This means that the clock signal is boosted across the entire array of memory chips so that the computer sees a clean sharp clock signal instead of a weakening clock signal as it progresses along the length of the memory path. Registered memory must be supported by the system board and cannot be mixed with "Unbuffered" modules. You must have only Registered memory to use Registered memory.

What You Need to Know Adding random access memory (RAM) to your system is the cheapest and most effective way to make it run faster. With the addition of more RAM, you''ll be able to keep more programs open at once, speed up program launches, and experience fewer system crashes. Plus, it''s a pretty easy upgrade to make, requiring little technical expertise. Your computer uses RAM to temporarily store the data that will be processed by the central processing unit (CPU). Information from a word-processing document, or spreadsheet must first be held in RAM before the CPU can process it. So the more RAM you have, the more data is available for the CPU to work with at one time.
