Hello
I have Read So many Articles Saying that 8gb is more than enough for gaming and equally large amount of articles that say i should get 16gb. I recently bought 2x4gb Corsair Vengeance lp For A gaming pc i am building on a mini itx motherboard with only 2 memory slots which means that both slots will be filled. Will the ram i have purchased be sufficient for heavy gaming, i just need to put my mind at ease
thanks

there are exceptions, but for the most part, 2x4GB is plenty.

the exception? BF4 64-player MP maps, though i wouldn't worry too much of it growing into a trend just yet.
