Windows 7 and Windows 8 requires at least 1GB of RAM to operate on (and a 1GHz CPU and 16GB HDD space). Adding just one more gig of RAM will make your PC run smoother and faster.
As we’ve explained, the easiest way to make your computer faster is to add RAM. It also is the most affordable way to make your computer run faster. The Apacer 1GB DDR3 1333MHZ DIMM PC3-10600 RAM costs only R94.Â
When should you consider more RAM? When you’re computer is sluggish, videos take forever to process, your 3G modem seems to hang, programmes take long to open.
There are so many irritations that can be fixed just by adding RAM. Which makes R94 a worthwhile investment.
