[QUOTE="Ricky55, post: 538009, member: 40456"] Of course RAM speeds up your computer! It may not make your processor physically go faster obviously not but if your computer under heavy load (loads of apps open etc) is wrting to the swap file because there is not enough Ram then by increasing Ram the swap file is used less this will therefore make the computer feel more responsive and faster. Every processor also needs a certain amount of Ram to feed it smoothly with data. So I think you are wrong to say that Ram doesn't speed things up. [/QUOTE]
