RAM Explained for Beginners - Random Access Memory

What is RAM? In this video we explain what RAM is, how it works, and how it integrates with other internal and external components.

RAM is the main memory of the PC. For the CPU to execute instructions, these have to be loaded first into RAM. The CPU uses RAM instead of other forms of memory, like hard drives or other mass storage devices, because RAM is significantly faster. Watch the video to learn more.

Well explained, I love it. Starting my new career in IT in about 6 days, sharpening up my memory with this nicely made videos. I have DDR4 RAMS's in my home built system, using dual channel architecture. Again thanks for the videos.

All too often we just do things like upgrade RAM and we know it makes a difference but we do not think of how it makes the difference. This was a great video that helped bring RAM into perspective. Thanks.

Nice channel thanks for the valuable information, most of it explains what I read in my previous chapter in the CompTIA A+ certification book, however it gives me a video visual and confirms some things that may have not stuck so easy with me. I'll be checking out your motherboard video after i read the next chapter as well.
