Of course. If the applications have enough RAM, then there is no need to use a hard disk for their operation. That will certainly increase system performance. For personal computers, the increase in performance will be significantly reduced if the amount of RAM is more than 8 GB.

Yes, of course. it depends on the size we use

yes of course 

RAM is short for Random Access Memory. RAM is optimised for accessing data from random addresses in a consistent way (no matter what address you want to access next it will take about the same time to do so).

RAM size directly effects the speed of computer.larger the RAM size, fastest is the speed of computer

Of  course absolutely, particular in these times. The faster RAM works - the faster it can function.

Think of it like  short term memory, and how you use it.

for example - If you give a speech with pages of notes and you need to keep going back and checking what to say- it slows you down .

If you have a teleprompter, you look more professional, it is faster and more effective, and you rely less on your short term memory.

so similar to how a computer works...

Yes.RAM is connected to two memory traits,including memory speed.

Yes,

    RAM stores all the informaton from Desktop Icons to backend running programm so, CPU can access it very quickly and randomly. When RAM memory full, OS starts clean up process and delete un-necessary data and other application goes into wait state(hang some time) until anough space in RAM is not abailable to stores its own data. So smaller RAM lower down the execution time of computer.

The Random access memory (RAM) is the temporary storage for data and programs that are being accessed by the CPU.

The more RAM in a computer, the more capacity the computer has to hold and process large programs and files, as well as enhance system performance.

Actually how to make my computer faster is not independent on the RAM directly neither than processor how fast is it and then look for the buss of data so if your RAM is not fast and you have a good processor you can make a vertual RAM amount from hard drive for other information do not hesitate and send me.

No,not exactly,somehow,It mostly depends on processing speed,so processor plays a vital role for fast prformance.
