Common conclusions
Low levels of RAM can cause your computer to freeze often and at random times. There will be no specific event or consequence that you can point to, but it can happen at random times as the computer is unable to handle the processing load that you put through it. To avoid these problems, you need to step up the processing power of your computer, and adding more RAM can be the best solution for it.
Computers that were bought a couple of decades ago have low RAm and memory because of the nascent technology that existed then. Today's computers are a lot more powerful, thanks to technological advancements. Hence, if you have an old computer and you're using it now to access modern and recent applications, you may need new RAM.
One of the biggest reasons for your computer to shut down often is low RAM. Sometimes, your computer will also reboot at random times and this is also because the RAM that you have is inadequate for the operations on your computer.
Graphics and other intensive applications require high levels of processing capabilities and this requires high levels of RAM. So, if you plan to use such intensive applications on your computer, your computer undoubtedly needs more RAM and you'll have to upgrade it.
When your computer takes time to respond to instructions such as the click of a mouse or the touch of a key, it is a sign that your computer needs more RAM. In general, when apps don't respond well to your actions, it indicates that the processing power of the computer is low. This is likely to happen if you run many applications at the same time, if you have an old computer, or if you tend to use intense applications that require high processing speeds. As a user, this can be outright frustrating, so you must upgrade to more RAM for better user experience.
Seeing a blue screen is what most users dread because it means your computer has crashed. This is why it's called the Blue Screen of Death. While there are many reasons for your computer to crash, low RAM is a common one. If this happens often, you should investigate the cause for the same and if you're able to pinpoint the cause to low RAM, make sure you upgrade it at the earliest.
It's great that your computer doesn't crash often. That said, if your computer is too slow in responding to your commands or if you want to run intense applications, consider upgrading your RAM. In case of other issues, reach out to an expert, and check if low RAM is the cause of your problems.
