This game requires 32GB RAM or more.

[Rybeus]

I feel like the game is using too much RAM.
32GB RAM is not enough.
As I continued to play, the memory usage increased.
I was experiencing frequent crashes, so I replaced the RAM with 64GB.
Now I rarely experience crashes.

♥♥♥♥ take is a ♥♥♥♥ take. 99.99% of games do not require more than 16gb's. If they do, it's because devs are incompetent.

there's actually 2 things:
Does a game require more than 16 GB? MHW no, it doesn't, in most cases
Does a game greatly benefits from 32 GB? Yes, it does.

RAM is a volatile storage memory, if you don't have it then your drive's (hopefully SSD) memory is used. But if you have more, the game can greatly benefit from it.

Using much RAM doesn't necessarily mean devs are incompetent, it can actually mean that devs are very competent if they load big chunk of repetitive data into RAM as much as possible.

I have 32 and the game uses 22. But the game could run on 16 as well doing data exchange between RAM and storage.

I'm aware, but that wasn't why I replied to that person. They're lying through their teeth and have zero understanding of how these things work, which annoyed me.

The thing about calling devs incompetent was just a blanket statement since even today there isn't really a game out there that requires more than 16gb's to play.

There is zero performance difference from 16GB RAM TO 32GB RAM I litterally tried it thinking more RAM would help saw no improvements what do ever & I gave that extra RAM to a friend biulding a PC.

I even searched up videos & benchmarks & yea it's the exact same performance.

If the game is using that much RAM to then crash the game then something is wrong with the game most likely a memory leak them yea more RAM would help but only fir a limited time.

Like I'm talking about if there is a improvement it's 1-2fps that's it.

Like when going from 16-32GB RAM it was exactly the same frametimes & the environment loaded the exact same speed nothing changed.

That's not really how RAM works. More RAM is just more space for programs to deflate commonly accessed information for faster/easier access. Unless you are hitting 100% usage and are reading/writing to the page file, more RAM won't significantly increase performance.

Now RAM with a higher Mhz (MT/s) can improve performance, but it is usually minimal.

In some games more RAM can definitely help in performance especially heavily modded or X4 or city sim game's all I'm saying is for Wilds more RAM won't help performance & 16GB is plenty so no need to spend money on a upgrade that won't have any noticeable difference as long as you have at least 16GB that's more than enough.

It's better to save that cash on a more important upgrade like a CPU or GPU that will actually have a noticeable impact.

If you have 32GB or more, you have the advantage of being able to talk to friends on Discord while playing MHW, or browse your gear in a browser while playing a game.
However, there is a clear improvement after the replacement.
It could simply be that my memory is broken.
However, since my friends are also experiencing crashes, I can't say for sure that there isn't a memory shortage.

game use max 27gb of ram so no, you dont need more than 32 gb.

Game also uses 32GB of a page file... at least that is my experience... In addition to whatever it uses with RAM...

[Khergit Horse Archer]

guys u need 128gb of ram or else ur gona leak into page file and thats going to reduce your peformance by 9999.69%

edit: its a joek plz dont actually do that and 32gb certainly should be more than enuff

In a vacuum, sure. Now add all the extra stuff running in the background like Steam and Discord. Let's not forget the memory reserved for your OS. All of the sudden the 16gb of ram turns into 8gb of accessible memory. More ram is almost always better regardless of whether or not the game requires it.

My PC is using 11.5GB of RAM with NO GAMES even running. 16GB is hopelessly outdated. I don't understand why people don't just upgrade if they need to? It's like the cheapest part of your PC to upgrade besides maybe the PSU.

Sounds more like your computer is being used for crypto mining by someone else. Mine doesnt even use 2gb when i have Netflix streaming.
