RAM stands for Random Access Memory is usually referred to as the short-term memory. Memory or RAM is a computer hardware that serves as a temporary data storage. Memory works by storing and supplying the necessary data required by the fast processor to be processed into information.
To be more easily understood as an example, when you open an application to open a browser such as microsoft or mozilla firefox then the processor will open a program or application from the hard drive and then it will load into memory or RAM. that's approximately a simple understanding of the function of memory or RAM.
You can also see how much memory is needed when running an application or program. The trick right-click on the desktop bar panel computer screen you then select Task Manager, or via the CRTL + ALT + DEL on the keyboard.

Note on tap Applications, then it will show applications or programs that are currently active,
On tap performance PF usage note in the column, there are some numbers (it is the amount of memory needed to display the application). More and more applications are active, the greater the memory required. Keep in mind also, although you do not open the application was not a means PF Usage column will be the number 0, because the windows operating system also requires memory to be active or live on the computer.
To further understand your work can be seen in the illustration below the memory or ram
when you turn on the computer, the first component is the processor works. Processor serves as a data processor and request data from data storage (storage), the Hard Disk (HDD). This means that data sent from the Hard Disk after a request from the processor.
But practice this is difficult because of differences in technology between Processor & Hard Disk. Processor itself is purely digital components, and will process data very fast (high bandwidth current P4 6.4 GB / s with 800MHz FSB). While most of the Hard Disk is a mechanical technology that is certainly quite slow compared to digital (Bandwidth or Transfer Rate Serial ATA HDD range 150 MB / s). Theoretically, data speeds ranging from 46x faster processor than the HDD. That is, if the processor waiting for the supply of data from the HDD would be a "Bottle-Neck" very severe.
So to overcome this, devices need the Main Memory (Primary Memory) or is called RAM. RAM Processor serves to assist in the provision of data "super fast" is required. RAM functions such as Digital HDD, because all components of the RAM already uses digital technology. With RAM, the processor need not wait shipment data from the HDD. Currently has a bandwidth of DDR2 RAM 3.2 GB / s (PC400), so as not to disturb the current supply of the motherboard uses Dual Channel technology which can double the bandwidth to be 2x to enlarge to 128-bit architecture. That means, two pieces of DDR2 in Dual Channel mode can supply the right amounts of data to the processor (3.2 GB / sx Dual Channel = 6.4 GB / s).
That's a little explanation about the meaning and function of the RAM or RAM memory, may be easily understood and can be useful for you who need it.
hopefully be useful for you to know.....
