Okay, I know we can argue gamers only need 8gb of ram until the cows come home, BUT can someone help me out here;
I think I need to move to 16gb, I am maxing out my RAM when playing cities skylines, and get surprisingly low fps (less than 30) and I am upscaling it to 4k on my 1080p monitor; but moving between this and standard 1080p DOES NOT AFFECT FPS. Ram usage stays the same! (so is ram my bottleneck?)
Furthermore GTAV seems to stutter ALOT and use ALOT of ram; and with me getting Fallout 4 I can only presume (despite it saying 8gb recommended) that another open world game may run smoother with 16gb?
If ANYONE has a clue if i will have a better experience with 16gb please let me know!
(I know my 6300 is a major bottleneck, my OC is keeping me going though and I do not see 100% cpu usage)
Specs:
AMD6300 [] @4.8ghz
GTX980
8GB Corsair vengence DDR3 @ 1866mhz
2 Samsung 850evo ssds for storage
