hello people of the internet
i have an msi ge60 2qe with intel 4720 and gtx960m and 8gb of ram,i'm trying to start a youtube channel so i record sometimes whenever i'm playing games,whenever i try to record black ops 3 zombies mode i usually get some lag spike,is it because i don't have enough ram,i set the resolution to 1920x1080 and all the graphic settings to low but i still get some lag spikes,i also get a message from norton saying black ops 3 is using all my ram,should i add another 8gb of ram to my laptop?

and also i'm using my steelseries 5hv3 headset to talk but the voice when i replay the gameplay is really soft so is it worth it if a buy a condenser mic,i have been looking at at audio technica atr2500 because it is in my budget and alot of reviews says that it's good
 
Solution
I would say yes. Not only do you need it now, within 1 year 16gb of ram will be neccessary for all gaming and videoing. Especially with 4k screens becoming more common.
