Motherboard

19
Q

___ is classically used for cache memory?

A

Static Random Memory

20
Q

___ access time come in at 40 nanosecond.

A

DRAM

21
Q

__ is more complex, thus more expensive and access times faster 10 ns?

A

SRAM

22
Q

___ is a memory type that was designed to be twice as fast as ___ memory that operates with the same system clock speed.

A

DDR3 and DDR2

23
Q

Why wait states is inserted in DRAM through the Bios setup for faster CPU to enable the same memory as a slower CPU?

A

Because ADRAM is not sychronized to the frontside bus, u would often have to

24
Q

__ was the term used to refer to the only form of sychronous DRAM on the market

A

SDRAM

25
Q

Why you used DRAM to expand memory?

A

Because it’s the cheaper type of memory
