My history of memory has been 4GB DDR2, 2GB DDR3L, and now 8GB DDR3, and the only time I've had issues with memory was with the 2GB
It's a matter of use case.
>>
>>61154557

>>61154712
My hard drive runs just fine with it. If it does die, simple enough swap out to another one, or even buy another one if I need to.
>>
>>61152730
Don't think so. I work on a project on a shared server with 20 ppl all using vs and memory hungry gis applications. Usually th server tops around 70% of 64 gb.

ATM you really will need a ton f memory if you are doing render, high size modeling, animation or intensive calculation, or if you need to host in memory database.

If you use simultaneous vm just calculate how much each eat up. For Linux distros I put at least 2gb each. Windows 4gb+.

If you use w10 or 8 it's a good idea to have 8/16 gb due to renewed superfetch. All data required by programs you already opened is hold on memory if you have enough, like a big cache requiring much less time to reopen or consume files. This is one of the reasons I don't think ateast on consumer side, you need ram drivers.
>>
>>61154557
If you topical load on Windows 8+ is taking more than 60% of physical memory consider increase. Windows will evict superfetch cache pretty often and will grind storage.

Name a game that uses 24GB of RAM even with mods
>>
>>61157281
still shit. even my ddr3 is faster than that at 2400
>>
>>61148734
/v/ please go. There is no right amount of RAM for all use cases. You can do more with a computer than play games.

>64gb of RAM for a server
Kek, why the fuck would you need more ram to host a headless FTP or SSH server than you would to run a full DE?

I agree about ridiculous heap overhead, but I hope you aren't implying all GC langs are bad. GC is great in a functional language while using lots of immutable constants.

Whatever amount of RAM is enough depending on what you're gonna use it for, you fucking retard.

>>61168152
You're literally in the middle of the list.

I've had monkey code in IntelliJ IDEA, about 6 tabs in Firefox and some AA game running. Everything consumed less than 4 GB.

Here's your (you). Also people who pimushes ram memes like you are the one who are insecure because you bought 200$ worth of ram and feel the need to tell everyone because placebo is not enough

Ended up using 12 GB of RAM compiling telegram and having 'atom helper' running (taking up 4 GB of ram)

>>61167935
when has it ever not allowed that?

8GB is enough. However programmers are unmindful of hardware constraints and use bad programming practices that overload modern hardware.

That was before computer graphics started to bloat everything

What about not being a poor third world shitskin

Pretty accurate. I have 16GB and 10 of it is always reserved for static huge pages for my gaymen Windows 10 VM. All games and emulators run fine with it. I'm also really satisfied with 6GB on Linux, nothing I do really requires more, and there is always the swapfile for rare desperate situations.

Same with cores, 4 is enough for me considering how fast modern CPUs are, nothing I do requires more. Virtual machine gaming overhead compensation is a meme and only pajeets who don't configure their stuff "need extra cores because of virtualization".

I feel like actually the most important thing for UX speed is having an SSD. If you have 4GB of RAM or more, the computer is completely fine. Hell, I even used a Raspberry Pi 3 as a desktop for a while. It wasn't too enjoyable when I had to browse the web but otherwise it was just fine.
