Too little RAM and your PC might be sluggish, so more RAM is almost always better. Here\u2019s how to check how much RAM you have (and what type and speed it is) in Windows 11.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Check_RAM_Amount_Using_Windows_Settings\"><\/span>How to Check RAM Amount Using Windows Settings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One way to check your RAM amount is in System Settings. First, launch Settings by pressing Windows+i on your keyboard.

(\u201c16.0 GB\u201d in our example.)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignnone wp-image-749341 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/win11_ram_in_settings.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"The amount of RAM in a PC displayed under Device Specifications.\" width=\"650\" height=\"269\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This same screen often comes in handy because it also shows what type of CPU your PC has in the \u201cProcessor\u201d category.
