32GB is the new Normal

[BLoCKANDLOADED ⭕⃤]

This 2023 i believe that 32GB is now the start of New Normal and 16GB is getting more not sufficient enough on upcoming Softwares, Browsers and Games Combined.

I agree.

[Heaven Fall]

hogwarts legacy use 15 Go of my 64Go RAM
So 32 Go can be good for some games but not all
Only a little for the moment

Only if you have a high end computer and play and high graphic / resolution

When you want to play modded minecraft you will need a severe amount of RAM as well.
When you want to Stream or work on videos (recorded footage) you will need high RAM.

32GB is currently all round really well. You have enough space in your memory to do most things and can keep your manu browser tabs opened up while playing games (so you can alt tab out, etc.)
16 is just...just a tiny bit too little for modded minecraft (especially 180+ modpacks)
one other upside is that you can disable pagefile paging if you just plan on mostly using 24 out of the 32GB; which if you run a full SSD system may not be worth much to be honest, but maybe..

You can also create a virtual storage device inside your RAM and just use that for whatever.. idk. More RAM can be useful at least.

don't let certain people, well, people, hear you say that

Because it is straight up bad and outright wrong advice not supported by MS and not beneficial in any way.

Yeh, don't go disabling page-file. Not only does it harm nothing to keep it but there are multiple windows components and *even* games (yes even games) which are outright programmed with the explicit expectation of the page file being there.

Just because someone on the internet has a system that managed to run without one does not mean its good to diable them. Much the same as how though people run an R9 on an a320 board, an FX on a 760g, or a modern high end GPU on a 700w bronze, none are good things to do. Dont encourage bad things.

:claugh: & we're off & racing

how to destroy your "credibility" in 1 shot

I mean, I only speak the truth. If you think otherwise please feel free to try and back yourself up. But I dont expect much. Most who claim its a good thing to do have neither supporting validation from reliable sources nor any actual ability to prove their point, because it is patently and factually wrong.

But go ahead, make credibility claims statements without cause. How about you show your own?

I'll wait. You either wont, or will try and fail, either way it will make me lol.

indeed

may as well upgrade to 128 GB while you have the chance

I'm sure you believe that
but you're wrong
you already lost @ post #4 resistance is futile don't embarrass yourself further

There was no losing, only helping to correct someone who was factually wrong.

You though, you are just trolling. That has been blatant the whole time. First dude is (hopefully) just some poor soul who read the wrong thing online somewhere, but your trollishness shone through a mile away. Much as I knew you wouldn't bother to try and back yourself and would scurry away.

Go ahead though, trolling never gets anyone far ;)

In the meantime, as I said, I will enjoy my lols at your pathetic attempts at troll-ish posting. You could try harder couldn't you?

Neither a good troll, nor a good debater. Also seemingly not that great at tech either?

That port is mess, though. So don't take it as the "current norm".

Im not entirely sure 32 is the new norm. Though its def getting there. Feels kinda like the Sandy Bridge era where 8gb was the old norm and 16gb was the starting new but some were in between.

Though, personally I have been a proponent of high ram values for quite some time. I have run 32GB for the past ~7 years in all my main line rigs.

Holy nonsense.
Did this happen because of the way I said it? I didn't mean literally disabling all paging, but the paging to pagefile / disabling pagefile. (swap on linux)
I just wanted to note that you 'can' disable pagefile. Due to the large RAM sum, its unlikely you run into microsoft beeping up because of RAM shortage if you plan on using 24GB or less mostly. There was no promoting the idea intended; but the choice is there without microsoft being a bother.

I apologize for my word use. I'll correct the post.

So the idea is that you have more freedom / more choice. I find that freedom an upside.

Oh, you are fine! The only drama was created by the troll. I mean he was such a troll he went back and deleted his troll-bait comment that started it all haha.

Dont let it bother ya, trolls be trolls.

I have 32 and 2 free slots just in case lol

[fatfluffycat]

dang I haven't even upgraded to 16gb yet
