Memory are devices on your computer that store data on computer. Every computer comes with some physical memory.The memory determines the size and number of programs that can be run and also the amount of data that can be processed. Memory is normally referred to as the RAM which is short for Random Access Memory. When opening up a program the interface and functions are loaded into RAM. This is done so the next time you visit that site or the program want have to go throught the whole process of gather information it just goes to your memory and load it up. The memory is a very important part of the computers and the way it operates. How to check Memory on Computer?

What is the Maximum amount of memory you can have?
The maximum amount of memory your computer can have is based on two things which are: 1) What the motherboard can handle and 2) The amount of memory your operating system can handle. Those to are given because your motherboard is designed to hold only a maximum amount of RAM. If you add to much RAM to your computer it will not work efficiently. What type of memory does it need and how much memory does it need to upgrade is also based on those two factors. Because I say again if you upgrade the memory to the maximum your computer may not work efficiently due to the fact the processor is processing faster then the motherboard.

your computer operate. Second you need to know if you are buying this memory for your desktop computer or your laptop computers because the memory cards are different sizes and also types.

The third thing is to make sure by reading the manual for your motherboard to see what is the maximum amount of memory it can hold. And last but not least you need to know what type of memory your operating system can handle. So when you go to the store these are all major things you need to know when trying to upgrade your memory and also trying to find out ow much memory your computer has.
