hello people now i want to ask u that using ready boost on win 7 will enhance R.A.M and will my games performance be increased

Isn't ready boost for usb devices?

No..
readyboost will not increase your game performance and will not enhance your ram....

then what actually readyboost does

It just allocates a space in the USB flash drive to act as a pagefile instead of your HDD.
Most SSD devices have faster access times + faster read speeds than a magnetic HDD, which is what ReadyBoost takes advantage of.

Offloading the pagefile onto a separate drive also increases loading performance (very slightly) when your system is under heavy load.
