computers even ones that are 2 to 3 years old often have enough RAM for the basic tasks that users want to perform so how would you tell if slow system responsiveness is being caused by not enough memory check out the performance Monitor and task manager in this example we see that Linus's available RAM is very very low we can also check processes as a diagnostic tool and we'll see that Linus has way too many Chrome tabs open if Linus Clos some Chrome tabs that would free up memory but if he's not willing to change his internet browsing habits adding more memory to that system would help improve performance now personally I generally notice system slowdowns when I reach around 80 to 90% RAM utilization but some people are more or less sensitive to this in this second example there is no benefit whatsoever to adding more memory because there's plenty available to the system the slowdowns that you experience when you run out of RAM are because your PC is swapping data out of RAM to your hard drive which is much much slower this other system is likely slow for some other reason such as a virus or other malware or another outdated slow component if your software is fine and you have enough RAM try adding an SSD to your system moving from a hard drive to an SSD can make your PC much more responsive even if it's several years old if none of that works you might just be too much of a power user for your current PC so it might be time for a system upgrade so guys don't forget to like this video leave a comment with your thoughts on this video and as always don't forget to
