The individual components have different
lifetimes. The way development has gone up until
the present, CPU’s and motherboards have been
the components that have become obsolete the
most quickly. CPU’s and motherboards also go
together– you normally change them both at the
same time. The question is, then, how important
is it to have the latest technology? You have to
decide that for yourself. But if you know that your
PC has to last for many years, you probably
should go for the fastest CPU on the market. For
the rest of us, who regularly upgrade and replace
our PC’s insides, it is important to find the most
economic processor. There is usually a price
jump in the processor series, such that the very
latest models are disproportionately expensive.
You have to find the model that gives the most
power in proportion to the price.
RAM stands for Random Access Memory. It is a
very central component in a PC, for without RAM
there can be no data processing. RAM is simply
the storage area where all software is loaded and
works from. Physically, RAM consists of small
electronic chips which are mounted in modules (small printed circuit boards). The
modules are installed in the PC’s motherboard using sockets — there are typically
2, 3 or 4 of these. However, RAM also has to match the motherboard, chipset and
the CPU system bus. You can try experimenting with overclocking, where you
intentionally increase the system bus clock frequency. That will mean you need
faster RAM than what is normally used in a given motherboard. However,
normally, we simply have to stick to the type of RAM currently recommended for
the chosen motherboard and CPU.
RAM has a very big impact on a PC’s capacity. So if you have to choose between
the fastest CPU, or more RAM, I would definitely recommend that you go for the
RAM. Some will choose the fastest CPU, with the expectation of buying extra
RAM later, “when the price falls again”. You can also go that way, but ideally, you
should get enough RAM from the beginning. But how much is that? If you still use
Windows 98, then 256 MB is enough. The system can’t normally make use of any
more, so more would be a waste. For the much better Windows 2000 operating
system, you should ideally have at least 512 MB RAM; it runs fine with this, but of
course 1024 MB or more is better. The same goes for Windows XP.
Recommended amount of PC RAM, which has to be matched to the operating
system.
