Laptop ram and Desktop ram

mikegreco16 · 12-01-2006, 07:03 PM

Ok I have a question I know that desktop and laptops use different kinds of ram that are different sizes and such, but heres my question if you say you have 512 in a laptop and 512 in a desktop wont the laptop be able to outperform the desktop even though they have the same amount of ram...and with everything else being equal as well prossesor ect. The reason i ask this is becuase according to dell the laptop is able to do more with the same amount of ram.

It might have to do with the speed of the RAM (Frequency)
