    RAM, or random access memory, is the computer's temporary memory that allows the computer to perform tasks by storing the code for active applications and files. There are different types of memory like RAM, ROM, cache, and virtual memory that each serve different purposes and have varying levels of speed and storage capabilities. When an application opens, the code is loaded into RAM from the hard drive to allow the computer to access and process it faster than from the hard drive.

    -The most expensive RAM you can buy for $100 isBallistix 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Desktop Memory for
    $99.99. (1 chip)
    1. RAM, ROM, Cache, Dynamic RAM, Static
    RAM, Flash memory, Memory sticks, Virtual
    Memory, Video Memory, BIOS.
    2. It means the level 2 cache is the CPUs
    priority over the USB
    3. ROM- Read only memory: permanent
    4. BIOS- a set of computer instructions in firmware
    5. RAM- Random access memory- temporary
    6. Applications, OS, Files
    7. Closed applications are loaded, and then any files are loaded from that
    application
    8. The hard disc because it provides good quantities of permanent storage.
    9. The use of processors with data-path widths
    10. Frames per second
    11. Cache
    12. A small set of data holding places in a processor in permanent storage.
