RAM speeds
RAM speed is measured in ns (nano seconds). The fewer ns, the faster is the RAM. Years ago,
RAM came in 120, 100 and 80 ns. Today, we are talking about 60 ns and faster.
It becomes complicated to describe the relationship between RAM speed and the ability of the
system bus to utilize fast RAM. I will gloss over that. But here is a table which illustrates RAM
speed, relative to clock speed:
