The RAM, Random Access Memory, has always been an important part in computers, and will probably be for a long while as well. Many probably underestimates the complexity in the design used in the RAM, but that’s something ExtremeTech intends to change, since they’ve published an article that explains what RAM really is, and how it works. In addition to explaing how it works, their latencies and so on, they also try to ask the eternal question; if DDR2 is better than DDR1-RAM. A very detailed article that just might give you a better insight in how RAM works.
