The website I choose is URL : http://goldenram.com/

I choose this website because it can be a valuable tool I believe in assisting you to see if you have enough RAM in your system to achieve the things you want or need to be able to do with your computing system. This site can run a diagnostic tool on your computer that will tell you exactly what kind of RAM you have, what condition it is in, how much you have and how much of it is being used to run the processes that your computer needs to run. This tool can give you some great advice on what you could do to dramatically speed up your system. With many systems, as it is explained in our textbook, the CPU processing power is more than enough for the programs and things you need to run on your computer but a lot of times what slows down your system or even crashes it is that there is not enough primary memory (RAM) to keep your CPU supplied with the information it needs to run your system and to keep it processing at an appropriate speed. This tool can help you see if how much or what kind of RAM your system uses is what is making your system appear to not be running at its optimal best and this site also has a store where you can purchase RAM (and the site will tell you exactly what kind your computer needs to run or can run when you run the diagnostic tool). I believe that this site and its tools can be very beneficial in testing and upgrading your system speed.
