Best Answer

A memory management unit (MMU) is a small device between CPU and RAM recalculating the actual memory address, for example to provide an abstraction of virtual memory or other tasks.

Is RAM stored directly on the CPU?

No. RAM is a type of memory, not data.

Does the speed of the ram decrease if the size of the ram is increased?

Actually it is quite the opposite. The more RAM you have the more speed at which data can be transferred to the RAM. An example is if you have 512 Mb of RAM then 512 Mb of data will be transferred to the RAM at a time, but if you upgrade it to 1 GB of RAM then 1 GB of data will be transferred to the RAM at a time verses the 512 Mb. So the speed at which the RAM stores data will increase if the size of the RAM is increased. I hope this answers your question.


How does the system bus contribute to the overall system performance?

Your data busses sends information from component to component i.e. your FSB (front side bus)/system bus/internal bus communicates between your CPU and RAM, the faster it runs, the faster information is moved between your RAM and CPU giving your CPU quicker access to that data.


RAM holds data and program for processing data?

RAM is volatile storage that holds the program and data that the CPU would be processing.

How does a computer's processing capacity affect the amount of ram you can use?

All programs and data are executed from memory (RAM) but it first needs to be fetched from wherever it is stored.If there is insufficient free memory, then some memory must be freed up by writing t to disk in the paging file. You can minimize the chances of this happening by maximizing the amount of memory in the PC. . The second impact is memory speed, especially the speed at which data can be transferred between RAM and the CPU. Data is actually transferred to cache memory on the CPU chip from main memory before it is executed,and then results are written back to main memory. The speed of this data transfer is affected by the design of the system, and the speed and quality of RAM installed, and by the setup of RAM timing in BIOS.


Can you store data in the CPU for a long time?

Hmmm, a CPU (processor) stores no data. RAM or Memory can store data as long as the computer is ON and the Hard Drive can store data indefinately (forever).


What carries the data and programs that move between the CPU and ram?

In Intel systems- the Front Side Bus In AMD systems- Hyper Transport
