Your PC comes with random access memory (RAM), which temporarily stores data and instructions on your PC. The PC ships with one or more memory modules, but you can replace the existing memory module(s) with higher-capacity ones.

The motherboard contains sockets for DDR DIMMs (double data rate dual in-line memory modules). The exact number of sockets and type of DDR memory module depends on which model PC you have.
