RAM discussion thread, how much is good enough?

No.50509980 View ViewReplyLast 50OriginalReport
1GB
> only good enough for really light OS and applications like Midori

2GB
> decent, but not good enough for 2015

4GB
> okay, but you might run out of memory when running applications like the Adobe suite or demanding games

8GB
> ideal price/performance?

16GB
> very good, enough for at least 3 years?

32GB
> expensive and overkill for gaming, but it's nice to have if you're editing videos/images in 4K with tons of layers

64GB
> overkill, just overkill. Can't image you actually using all that

128GB
