minus-squareNicht BurningTurtle@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up7arrow-down4·11 hours ago16GB is perfectly enough currently and I expect it to stay so for the next 5+ years.
minus-squareSCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·2 hours agoFalse. 16gb is maybe enough for a phone these days. 32gb is the bare minimum baseline, and if you want to game AND use a browser you should be seriously moving to 64gb And if you’re a power user of ANY kind, go straight to 128. The only people who need 128 or more do not need to ask. So, if you only browse the web with a few other programs, and you have less than 20 tabs in a browser, 32gb. If you go over 20 tabs and want to game at the same time, just go to 64gb.
minus-squareUndergroundGoblin@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·5 hours agoI would say 16 GB is the bare minimum. Oblivion for example needs about 10 GB, If you have discord, your Browser, and 1-2 other programs running in the background simultaneously, you will easily reach your limit.

minus-squaredrathvedro@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 hours agoNot really. 16 gigs is like the base amount of VRAM on the new 5xxx series nvidia GPU’s, and you probably want more RAM than VRAM in your rig…
minus-squareEngywook@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·10 hours agoWith 16 GB ram I can perfectly virtualize W11 giving 8 GB ram to the guest (on a Linux host), so yes, for normal use 16 GB is perfectly fine.

False.

Cool, danke.
