FAQs

Yes, in most cases, “main memory” and “RAM” refer to the same component within a computer. RAM stands for Random Access Memory, and it is commonly known as the main memory. It temporarily stores data that your computer needs to access quickly while running programmes and tasks. However, it is important to note that the term “memory” can sometimes refer to storage devices as well, so it is advisable to clarify the context when discussing memory-related topics.

Upgrading from 8GB to 16GB of RAM can offer noticeable improvements, depending on how you use your computer. For everyday tasks such as web browsing, word processing and media streaming, 8GB is generally sufficient. However, if you regularly engage in activities such as gaming, video editing, graphic design or multitasking with many applications open at once, upgrading to 16GB can lead to smoother performance and faster load times. It is also a sensible way to future-proof your device.

The decision to add more RAM depends on your current usage and system performance. If your computer often feels slow, struggles with multitasking, or frequently displays warnings about insufficient memory, upgrading your RAM may help. However, if you are running out of storage space for files, photos and applications, you may need to increase your storage capacity instead. Identifying whether your system’s performance issues are related to memory (RAM) or storage will help you choose the most effective upgrade.

Whether it is better to have more RAM or a faster processor depends on how you use your computer. A faster processor improves overall system speed, particularly for tasks that require high processing power, such as video editing, gaming or software development. On the other hand, having more RAM enhances your ability to run multiple applications simultaneously and improves performance in memory-intensive tasks. Ideally, a balanced combination of both is recommended, but if you are focused on multitasking or running large applications, upgrading RAM can provide immediate benefits. Conversely, for demanding tasks that rely heavily on processing power, a faster processor may be the better investment.
