I am a college student, and am seeking an answer to a question. I am wondering if a modern day computer can function without RAM. If so, what is the outcome?
If anyone can help me, please respond with a way for me to get in touch with you, and give you proper citation in my paper.
Thanks in advance for anyone's assistance.

yes, but no
it will power on. it wont do anything useful though, just beep at you.
theoretically i suppose you could build a pc where it had no ram, only cache on the cpu , but im not sure.
