Random access memory is necessary to store information used by the central processor during operation. A personal computer may contain several memory modules at once, which work as a whole.

Instructions
Step 1
To improve the performance of the RAM, new boards must be added. RAM modules have two main characteristics: the size of the board and the frequency of its operation. The first indicator characterizes the amount of information that can be stored in the module. The higher this indicator, the less often the board needs to "reboot".
Step 2
The bus frequency of the module shows the amount of information that comes from the board to the processor per unit of time. When choosing a new memory module, you need to find out the characteristics of the installed boards. The fact is that the operating frequency of all modules is automatically reduced to that of the smaller board. Download the Speccy program. This can be done on the website of the developers www.piriform.com.
Step 3
Install the utility after downloading the files and restart your computer. Open the Speccy program and select the "RAM" tab. Find the SPD submenu and expand Slot 1, Slot 2, and so on. Look at the metrics displayed in the Frequency columns for each memory module. This is the clock frequency of the boards at which they are currently operating.
Step 4
Find the “Throughput” fields and view their metrics. The data displayed in these fields indicates the nominal operating frequency of the memory modules. Based on the information received, find out the frequency of the new memory module. Sometimes a greater performance gain can be obtained not by adding another memory module, but by replacing an existing board.
Step 5
If your computer has a low frequency memory card, it is best to replace it. This will save you the original volume of the modules while increasing their throughput.
