The speed of the PC depends mainly on the processor speed and the RAM speed. The speed of the PC is also affected by the number of files and free space available in the computer. To know the speed of the PC, one has to go to my computer either by clicking start tab or pressing the windows key and select my computer option.

In certain desk tops, my computer icon will be placed in the desk top and the user can enter in to my computer by clicking on this icon. How fast is my PC? After entering my computer, right click and select properties. The system properties tab will be displayed and several configurations of the computer will be displayed. In the computer column, the speed of the CPU will be mentioned in the Giga hertz.

The company of the processor will also be displayed in the computer column. Most of the computers will be having the Intel Pentium processor CPU with dual core processor. In the last line, the speed of the Ram memory in Giga Hertz will be displayed.

Normally the RAM installed will be 1 Giga hertz but there is RAM chip available in higher speeds. Normally there will be two RAM slots in the mother board of the CPU. How fast is my PC? These two figures of CPU speed and RAM speed determine the speed of the PC. To increase the speed of the PC, people will increase the size of the RAM and when the RAM memory increases the speed of the PC will also increase rapidly. How fast is my PC? The next aspect is to reduce or free the hard disk space to increase the speed of the PC.

he C Drive or the drive where the operating system is installed must be mostly free and the unused programs must be uninstalled from the control panel to increase the PC speed.

The system tools like disk clean up, disk de fragmentation can also be used periodically to remove and arrange the files in a tight manner in the file system of the operating system. This will enable the processor to access the files quickly and as a result the speed of the PC will increase. The unnecessary video files and other files must be deleted from the hard disk drive to free the hard disk space in order to increase PC speed.
