Dynamic RAM takes one transistor per bit, so you'd have a bit less than 6K
bytes, or 2K 20-bit words.

Static RAM takes four transistors per bit, so you'd have about 1K bytes, or
about 500 20-bit words.

Now, depending on design rules, you might be able to get significantly more
transistors on there in a RAM array.  Your mileage may vary.
