The Corsair Vengeance LPX is among one of the most solidly reliable kits of RAM you can purchase. Its low-profile form factor makes it an easy fit for most PC builds, and its 2,400MHz starting speed is plenty quick too. Best

RAM is an acronym for R andom- A ccess M emory. It is one of the fundamental pieces of the computing puzzle alongside the processor (or CPU) and classic storage (usually coined as ROM for R ead O nly M emory).
RAM is needed in order to facilitate data transfer to and from your system storage (can be hard disk drive or solid state drive). The processor is the one that does the compute, the calculations etc and just next to it sits the cache, which is a super fast version of RAM but only available in tiny
amounts (up to a couple of hundreds of MB at most).
Then comes RAM (usually around 16GB on standard computers) and beyond that system storage. The further they are from the processor, the cheaper they are per unit storage and the slower they become. You won't need to upgrade your RAM in the best gaming laptop
