When building a computer, it is essential to get all the parts correct as it is like a jigsaw, you cannot force one part to go with another. RAM is a main part of a computer as it stores the temporary data on your computer, e.g. if your writing a word document and the power cuts out without you saving your work, the temporary data is wiped clean and you will have to start all over again. RAM is like a smaller hard drive that only stores data temporarily. The more RAM you have the more temporary data can be stored as some games require you have a certain amount so it can store temporary data for the game to function correctly. RAM is good in masses of amounts but can cost a lot. These days if you want about 2GB RAM it will cost you around 50.00GBP you can probably find cheaper by searching the Internet.



CD, DVD Drives? These are essential to any computer as mainly DVDs are used to store masses of data like, programs, games and so on.
