You can increase performance by physically upgrading RAM and adjusting virtual memory settings on Windows 10/11 through straightforward methods that don’t require advanced technical skills.

Increasing Physical RAM

Check your current RAM and compatibility:
Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager and click the Performance tab to see installed RAM and usage.

Determine the type of RAM your system uses (DDR3, DDR4, or DDR5) and maximum supported RAM using tools like CPU-Z or your PC/laptop specifications.

Purchase compatible RAM modules:
Make sure the new RAM matches your system’s type, speed, and voltage. Laptops may require SODIMM modules, while desktops typically use DIMM modules.

Consider adding RAM in pairs for dual-channel performance.
Install RAM safely:

Shut down and unplug your PC or laptop.
Open the casing (desktop) or rear panel (laptop).
Insert the new RAM module(s) firmly into the RAM slots at a 45-degree angle and press down until it clicks.

Close the casing or panel, plug the device back in, and restart.
Confirm the new RAM in System Properties or Task Manager.
