    Which power state keeps RAM refreshed but powers down CPU and most devices?

    ক)
    S0 (Working)
    খ)
    S3 (Suspend to RAM)
    গ)
    S4 (Hibernate)
    ঘ)
    S5 (Soft off)

    Explanation

    In ACPI S3, memory stays powered to retain context while CPUs and many devices sleep. Resume is quick as state is in DRAM. S4 saves state to disk (slower resume, no standby power). S5 is shutdown with only wake logic powered.
