A user reports that their computer is experiencing sluggish performance, particularly when running multiple applications. They want to improve the system's speed.
Which action should you take to best address this issue?
Adding memory (RAM) to the system can significantly enhance its ability to manage multiple applications simultaneously, reducing sluggishness. Increasing RAM allows more data to be processed at once, improving overall system performance.
While upgrading the CPU can help, memory upgrade is often the more straightforward approach for immediate impact on performance. Installing additional hard drives does not directly resolve performance slowdowns caused by running applications.
