Tfw you fell for the 16 GiB RAM meme

>tfw you fell for the 16 GiB RAM meme

i still have 8. what am I missing with 16?

I have 16 and I'm pushing its limit when I play ARK. I need more.

Literally nothing. RAM is a meme.

16gb of ram is disgustingly inadequate for serious computer use

...

wait what board is this?

how much do you get per day with 16 on biz_delegate?

hue hue

>tfw actually an arklet, though.... feelsbadman.jpg

What matters in RAM is speed, your better off with 8 gb at 3200mhz than 16 at 1600.

>mfw 128gb
but 3d rendering

at 16 im constantly running into ram issue. Between 3 monitors each having 15-30 active internet tabs (yes i use them all), Photoshop, Dreamweaver, torrents, what ever game i happen to be playing, Unity and unreal engine running. Perhaps im just a very busy autist but definitely need more ram.

got 16 in both my desktop and thinkpad. they were both cheap so idk

I already run into problems with 30 tabs open for a day + a couple minor programs like discord, Telegram, slack etc. + 1 high end game

If I just browse with several 20-30+ tab windows for a few days (on sleep overnight), I almost max out my RAM just through Chrome memory leaking (I know).

Yeah but chrome scales back once other programs demand memory so it will never bottleneck you.

Chromes good for tab junkies like us. Firefox is just cancer

Also, windows 10 really helps because it freezes things in the background. Not good for game engines though, sometimes it crashes them.

>2010 chinkpad x201
>recently installed SSD
>4GB ram
>old i5 processor
>usually 10-15 tabs open
>plays 1080 streams fine
>can browse Veeky Forums on a second monitor

works like a dream -

cost £150 three years ago
SSD cost me £60 last week

ill get another 2 years plus out of this

>buying a laptop for more than £/$ 300

works like a dream

>tfw youre on the wrong board
Come back to we miss u

I have 16 GB and I wish my motherboard would support 32GB. My use case is opening lots of chromium instances. Don't ask why.

mfw fell for the 16gb ram meme and ended up getting 32gb cuz muh 350 Firefox pricechart tabs

9 chrome tabs
couple file explorers
6 notepads
twitch
steam
ARK wallet
calc
MS Word

6 GB before even launching a game. ugh.

...

I've got 32gb highest speed. This is useful for rendering normie.

i have 20 tabs open, 50% ram use. seems fine to me

>20 tabs
Did you know one 23-24 inch 1080p monitor holds exactly 52 tabs before the icons disappear and it becomes unusable? And most people have 2-3 monitors full? Filthy casual.

I have 16 and love it. Thing just cruises, never slows down, never pauses, freezes etc. Just goes

I have triple monitor and will regularly have 30 tabs, music, YouTube videos all running together on 2 screens whilst I have crysis 3 open on one screen and a 4k video encoding in the background. Then on my last screen I have software compiling while I mine bitbean on the last screen.

>tfw fell for the 8gb meme
Feels good that I'm not a Chromecuck. Also bought it cheap before NAND prices went up.
