I couldn't really call myself savvy either, and you're right there's not much point doing this test as it won't tell you about failing ram.
If you have a motherboard speaker, the beeps may be able to indicate something regarding your ram tho? However, there may only be a code for completely not detecting any working ram (which isn't the case for you if it's managing slowly to boot)
Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool is the thing for checking your ram. Think I used it ages ago trying to find a problem with my PC, but it turned out ram wasn't the problem. Might be worth a look
