Pushing too hard on ram?

So every week I pop of the side of my pc and check everything is in-place firmly. I probably push with a little bit more force than I should on the ram. Is this bad? Can it effect performance in terms of loading and rendering? or is ram tougher than I thought?

Thanks,
Kieran

RAM sticks are pretty tough, though you do run the risk of damaging the motherboard or even a static discharge (though that's not likely).

As per the above comments, let me give some great computer advice:

IF IT WORKS DO NOT MESS WITH IT!

Do you think its fine? Is there any sings of damage I should be looking for?
 


If your memory is working fine you won't see any signs of damage. Even if it was broken it's unlikely as the fine, copper traces or memory slot being loose are usually impossible to observe as damaged.
