Rust Ram Usage
I am sorry, but why does RUST eat over 22 GBs of Ram?
Quite literally devoured all free memor, and I have 32 GBs and it was still going, "Can I have more, please?"

Should I buy another 32 GBs of ram so this game runs on stable 60 fps ? Quite much it wasn't even using more than 10% of the CPU and 40 % of the GPU on Ultra, the bottle neck was the RAM

I have 32GB DDR5 RAM (2x16) 6000MHZ. Yeah, this game eats a lot of VRAM + RAM. When I monitor the game with MSI Afterburner, it often shows 12GB VRAM usage, and up to 25-26GB RAM usage. This game is just memory intensive. The game have to load many many objects, big maps etc, it requires a stronger config.

If Rust is your main game, then yes, you will need more RAM .. fwiw, it's not even just a RUST problem, it is anything the uses the Unity Engine .. I had to upgrade to 64Gb+12GbVRAM (RTX3060) a few years ago for Cities Skylines (original), and also run a minimum of 64Gb Page File just to get the game to run smooth with 50% settings.

if you don't restrict the use then it obviously will use as much as it likes. no need to make steam discussion post about trivial stuff you can control urself...

no, you definitely don't need to buy another 32 gb of ram if you already have 32 gb of ram
