How to test Computer RAM to find out its condition

Random-access memory (RAM) is a high-speed and super-fast storage used in computers to temporarily store and access data.



RAM works by giving applications a place to store and access data in the short term. And RAM also stores information that the computer is actively using so it can be accessed quickly. The more programs run by the operating system, the greater the need for RAM.



Like other computer components, RAM can also be damaged. One sign of damage to RAM is that the computer screen turns blue or what we know as “blue screens of death” (BSOD).



Early signs of damage to RAM can be easily recognized, such as the occurrence of “crashes” when using the computer, but the operating system can still run. When the damage is getting worse, “crashes” will occur more often.



To test whether the RAM still has stable and normal performance, you can use the following tool.



A. Windows Memory Diagnostic tool



Windows Memory Diagnostic tool is an application to test RAM, which is a default application from Windows. This tool is already available on Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows 7 without you needing to install it.



Memory Diagnostics Tool will work by checking RAM for any errors while working on your system. This helps you to determine if a problem is occurring because of hardware failure, including RAM, motherboard, and more.
