What is a common cause of sluggish response time in computers?
Incorrect user settings
A lack of available RAM
Loose cables
Overheating
A lack of available RAM is often responsible for causing sluggish response times as the system struggles to manage multiple applications simultaneously without adequate memory. This issue forces the computer to use disk-based virtual memory, which is slower than RAM, thus slowing down the entire system. The other options do not directly cause sluggish response times. Overheating can lead to system throttling or shutdowns but not directly to sluggish performance. Loose cables might cause connectivity issues or hardware malfunctions but would not typically slow down the system. Incorrect user settings can lead to poor configuration but usually do not influence the overall performance speed directly.
