If you've ever owned a computer then some point in time you've sat down in front of your machine and thought something to the effect of "wow, things are running really slow". While spyware, Malware, viruses, and even registry errors are commonly attributed to a computer's poor performance, there are other things that commonly cause a computer to run slowly.One of the most common things that slow computer down is old age. This in conjunction with the introduction of new or more modern software can really place strain on a machine that's just a few years old. The good news however is that most people won't need to run out and purchase a new PC. Older machines usually have empty slots inside of them for more RAM and things like video cards and sound cards. Adding things like new video or sound card to an older computer that doesn't have those can free up some memory that's used to run those things off of the motherboard. It is RAM however that can really increase the performance of an older machine.
RAM or a computer's memory is often thought of as a PC's ability to handle and manage its workload. While having a speedy processor is definitely advantageous, it is the RAM that really determines how fast and efficient a computer operates. By filling in empty memory slots with more RAM a computer owner can not only increase the efficiency of their machine but it's life as well. In many cases after adding more RAM to their machine, individuals find that the problems with slow down or lag completely disappear giving them more time to save up for a new machine a year or two down the road.
