What Will Extra RAM Do For Me?
I opened up the bottom of my laptop yesterday, and noticed a place for an additional component that I didn't have. Apparently it's a place where I could put in an additional RAM card.
Now, I have tried many times to understand it, but I just can't understand what all of the different physical components of a computer do what. If I put in an additional RAM card, just for instance say another 4GB one like the one I have, what would that do for me?
Would loading screens on games end faster? Would games run more smoothly?
I have a program called LEGO Digital Designer, where I can build virtual models with realistic virtual bricks. When I have a lot of bricks in the model, and am adjusting my view or copying sections with lots of bricks, it slows down. Would RAM help with that?
If RAM won't help, (now this is probably a REALLY dumb question, but worth a shot) can something else like a graphics card fit into the same slot?
Thanks!
