8gb vs 16gb of ram

Harry Pickel · Aug 19, 2014

Hi I am getting this gaming pc http://pcpartpicker.com/p/8PVrRB and I am wondering if I should save some more money and get 16gb of ram or I get it when my computer starts getting sluggish

Save your money, 8GB is fine, certainly not necessary to have 16GB right away - but then again if you have the money available and don't want to spend more in the future you could just get the extra 8GB.

No, for gaming 8gb is more than enough, normal day use is like 3gb anyway so 8gb is enough

I would go with 8GB. It can be used for everything

There is no need for 16GB RAM.

8GB will be enough for a while, modern games + OS get to use around 6GB so you have enough RAM free for other stuff while gaming like browsing and such.
