I've never seen a jump like that by adding more ram. Faster RAM, yes, especially with Ryzen CPU's. But never more.
16GB should be more than enough for this game, I really cannot see why 32GB would be needed? Does the game really use all your RAM? That's crazy.

I literally posted my before/after benchmarks in the OP

ok buddy

I would have thought that DDR4/DDR5 RAM frequency would be more important than total RAM capacity (beyond 16GB).

Was the game actually using more RAM than your system had available?

So many of your options are low or off. With that strong of a PC.. I don't get it. Do you really need 90 fps on a total war game?

id rather have stuff ultra and high and having 30 fps, fps fanatics are strange bunch.

The difference from 60 to 30 fps is extreme if you are used to it.

30 fps feels like extreme stuttering like the stop motion cartoons for those used to 60.

Yeah, 60fps is fine by me. As long as it is that or above.

Using a laptop my only option is to expand RAM anyway : ( Unless I am willing to pay unsavoury amounts of money for a better GPU I suppose...
