How To : Add Ram To Your Desktop

As technologies are evolving, we expect a new computer to be, well, really fast. In the beginning, the computer boots up fast and all the applications close and open in an instance. The web browser opens in a flash. Well, that's much like it.



How can you fix a desktop computer that's become too sluggish? Simply adding more RAM is typically your best option.

But...
As time passes, and you add more files, applications, you begin to see the difference: the computer boots slower than compared to when it was new, applications take more time to open etc. etc.
But it's no surprise that your computer is growing slower.
Just think about all of the things you use your computer for. Are you one of those people who like to edit and organise digital photos? If so, you're probably filling your hard drive with a seemingly endless number of pictures from memory cards. Or perhaps you like to capture home movies on digital video, which can take up even more storage and processing power. And, like many others, you may store large libraries of MP3 files on your desktop, too. Your computer has to manage the software that you use to work with these files. If you think about your computer having to run all of these programs at the same time, you start to understand how much pressure we place on desktops.
So do you accept the slow desktop, or are ready to take action? Fortunately, there is a way, an easy and inexpensive way, to adjust the computer's power to handle these processes. This is by adding or upgrading your Random Access Memory (RAM) and can noticeably improve your computer's performance.

This post will tell you all about adding RAM to your desktop:

1.Choosing RAM For Your Desktop:

This is what a regular RAM stick looks like.

Whenever we tell the computer to perform certain function, the information from the command gets loaded on to the memory. With that memory on hand, your desktop can run more efficiently. But when your computer has too many tasks to perform and not enough means with which to do everything, you're putting strain on your desktop's processing. It's sort of like asking a person who's spent a couple of weeks training for a 5K race to run an entire marathon -- the runner wouldn't have the strength to run such a long distance in a reasonable amount of time since he or she would be woefully unprepared.

So if your desktop is suffering from too much workload, how much RAM do you actually need? Before you go out to find the RAM module on the shelf, you need to ask yourself what kind of work you normally do on your desktop. If you use your desktop for just your bare-bones basics like e-mail and word processing, your computer won't need too much RAM. Somewhere between 384 to 512 MB of RAM should be sufficient. But you should keep in mind that even if your desktop computer is relatively new, some systems don't come with enough memory to operate even the most basic tasks.

The more processing you require your computer to perform, the more RAM you'll need.If you use your desktop for work in a home office and you often use several different types of programs simultaneously, including e-mail, Web surfing, word processing, spreadsheets and software for presentations and illustrations, you desktop will probably require the upper end, maybe even as much as 1 GB of RAM. Serious gamers who use up a lot of graphics power need between 2 and 4GB of RAM, while professionals who use a lot of 3-D modelling software should probably have 2GB or more. If you're not sure what kind of RAM your desktop needs, there are sites like Crucial.com that are dedicated entirely to memory performance and allow you to select the type of desktop you own and search for the most compatible RAM for your system.

2.Adding RAM To Your Desktop:

Safely open up your desktop to reveal its insides, then add the new RAM. It's simple, isn't it?

Desktop computers are designed many different ways, but most have either side doors or tops that can be removed with the help of a screwdriver. The RAM slots are located on the computer's motherboard. There are usually two slots, though there may be more. If all slots are filled up with existing RAM modules, you can replace a smaller RAM chip with a larger one. Just release the tabs that hold the module down, remove the old module and insert the new, larger one. If there's a slot open, you simply can slide the new module in place and gently snap it into position.

Once you've installed the RAM, and after you've closed up your desktop safely and properly, you can start up your computer. The system should recognise the new RAM automatically. Now your desktop will boot up faster, run applications more efficiently and switch between programs with noticeable ease.

That's it.
Thank you!!

Lifi- The New Way To Connect!

Okay, so from now on, I'll also post about the new technologies that are being developed.
I'll first start with Lifi. The technology's full name is Wifi by lights. isn't the name interesting itself? Okay so now I'll tell about it. It is actually LED lights transmitting internet signals. Instead of the usual radio waves transmitted, it transmits streams of lights , thus effectively transmitting internet signals. It is a lot more faster than usual broadband, with the lowest speed as 150 mbps and the highest speed has already exceeded 10gbps.So fast!! Isn't it amazing? They could replace the usual Wifi because of the following reason-
It could be used where traditional Wifi is banned. eg- hospitals or onboard aircrafts.
The lights flicker on and off so fast that they appear constantly lit to the human eyes. This is useful because we can study and download a file at the same time with the help of a single light.
The only thing you have to do is to buy a Li-fi kit and place the chip in the LED light and place the receiver in your iOS or Android phone or tablet and you are done! The only disadvantage is that the phone must be in a straight direction to the light present. But,the positive effects are greater than the negative one, so I am going to definitely try it! I also recommend you to when it is released in your country.
