    It’s hard to tell how much impact it would add without knowing how much RAM you have now. The biggest impact will be if you tend to have a large number of applications open at a time or if the ones you use have a large memory footprint. In that case the operating system will do what’s called memory paging. It will keep shuffling things between your memory and the hard disk. Paging can drastically slow down your system if it is happening often. I recommend a minimum of 2Gb these days. Particularly if you are running Windows Vista.

    its depending on how much memory you have.

    it will be faster. you’ll be able to run more programs simultaneously without the computer going slow or freezing.
