How much Ram do you have in your system?

[TaySan]

With all this talk about SSDs and the future of PC gaming i was wondering how much RAM do you have in your current system and whether you are going to add anymore for next gen? I have 32gb ram and i feel pretty safe for next gen. I can't imagine most games requiring that much ram to run.

I've had 16 for many years, probably going 32 in the next build just because why not.

 

[adj_noun]

16 and it's way more than I really need.

Any of the shiny new stuff I play on console, and the PC only stuff I'm interested in doesn't tend to be that demanding.

 

[Frost1800]

32, I think it should be enough for next gen still.

 

[Vex]

8GB

Starting to feel it more and more. Need to upgrade but I also need a new Mobo.

Looking to get on that 32.

 

[Theswweet]

32GB+8GB VRAM.

 

[ToadPacShakur]

I have 32GB but honestly I just did that because I have Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB sticks and it looks cooler with four sticks as opposed to two

I get that that's the most first-world reason to upgrade but 🤷‍♂️

 

[Mozendo]

Had 32GB when I had DDR3, now have 16GB, it's fine for me.

 

[Jellycrackers]

64gb, but only because some music production software gets crazy on RAM. It's still more than I need, but plenty of other composers use every bit of 64. Some even 128.

 

[newmoneytrash]

only 16gb. i'll probably upgrade to 32 once the new consoles launch and we start seeing the big bump in graphics for multiplatform games, but for now 16 is more than fine

 

[Massicot]

64. Not sure why tbh.

 

[Maple]

8 GB of GDDR5 in my 1070, system has 16 GB of DDR4 clocked at 3,000 MHz.

 

[Mentalist]

I have 16 GB of 3600 currently in my system, downclocked to 3200 because that's the max that my mobo can candle.

I've got another 16 Gb of 3200 lying around somewhere but I can never get around to installing it.

 

[Flandy]

16GB @ 3200Mhz
Plan to get 32GB on my next build

Spoiler

hopefully DDR5 is out by then

 

[Vimto]

16GB DDR3 + 8GB GDDR5X

 

[z1ggy]

i have been on 16 gb for about 3 years, next step is 32 gb. But gonna wait for now.

 

[kirby_fox]

16 gigs. I'm still playing catch up with older titles so I'll likely be good for awhile.

 

[Zaki2407]

8. But I'm not using my PC for gaming, so..🤔🤔🤔

 

[GamingRobioto]

16GB, had that for 8 years now in various builds. My next build later in the year will also have 16GB, no need for 32GB for gaming, yet...

 

[Shokunin]

Just upped to 32GB earlier this week. I run dual monitors and usually have a video or Twitch on the second monitor while gaming on the primary.

 

[dreamstation]

16GB but it's only DDR3?

 

[Pwnz]

64 GB

 

[shoemasta]

8GB. It's pretty obvious I need to upgrade.

Was trying out Call of Duty Warzone and my PC was really struggling with that game

 

[GameAddict411]

32 GB

 

[Dest]

32. Will double with Ryzen 4th gen stuff

 

[huH1678]

8GB DDR3 + whatever amounts a 1080 has and yes i game on it lol. I refuse to upgrade until I do a new build or switch to laptop.

Click to shrink...

I go with 16 GB of RAM and 8 GB of VRAM currently.
I'll probably aim to 32 GB of RAM at least when I will finally decide to buy a new PC and replace my current six-years-old one.

 

[Nostremitus]

32GB RAM 8GB VRAM in my desktop, 16GB RAM 6GB VRAM in my laptop

 

[Deleted member 283]

4 GB, because I just have my super-basic laptop and so, well, yeah. >.> Fortunately, I'm not interested in most AAA games, and as I've been working through my backlog, it's honestly impressive just how much stuff I've been able to get away with even on something like this. Definitely would appreciate more though, but is what it is.

 

[RCSI]

16GB DDR3, upgraded from 8GB when it was built. Previous Q6600 system had 4GB DDR3 (one of those dual DDR2/DDR3 motherboards if I recall correctly). Will be 32 GB when I hopefully upgrade in winter.

 

[xir]

Is hl alyx the first to require more than 8? 12 is a weird stair step

 

[smurfx]

laptop came with 8gb and i added another 8gb stick.

 

[Sub Boss]

Just a single brain🧠

 

[Earvin Infinity]

32 GB DDR4 at 3200 MHz with 11 GB GDDR6.

My next big upgrade will be 64 GB DDR5 at 5000 MHz (a few years from now).

 

[MrNewVegas]

16 rams

 

[Tabs2002]

16gb 3200

 

[mokostroika2]

4gb - but video takes up to 1.5 so under 3

its a macbook air [early 2014] so far its been good, but damn thing starts glitching like crazy with "heavy" use, like simple photo editing [dust/hair removal from negative scans] fak.

 

[TheMango55]

16 GB
11 GB video ram (1080 ti)

 

[Ryuelli]

8gb in a system I built in 2016.

I've definitely been thinking of building a new PC again, it's starting to feel a bit sluggish in certain applications.

 

[ArtemisLunar]

Have 2 systems
8 GB DDR3 8GB VRAM GTX 1070
16 GB DDR4 11 GB VRAM GTX 1080ti

 

[Mochi]

Just about to switch from 16 to 32 GB.

 

[FF Seraphim]

16gb might go to 32 in a year or so but nothing requires it at the moment. Really depends on what mobos that have pcie 4.0 come next year...

 

[Strike]

16GB. Going to upgrade to a new rig this year. Been way too long.

 

[R dott B]

32gb

 

[Josh5890]

16GB for me.

 

[KimonoNoNo]

4x8 Gig cause I'm on quad channel x99.

 

[mikeys_legendary]

16gb.

I was using 8 for the longest time but I started to feel like it wasn't enough.

 

[Yogi]

I've been on 16 for the longest time but the next upgrade I think I'll go 32.

I don't feel like 16 isn't enough but who knows next-gen. Maybe I'll start with 16 again and see.

Hopefully that rumour about 20GB with the Nvidia GPUs turns out true.

 

[Amauri14]

32GB RAM which I plan to upgrade to 64 by the end of the year, and 8GB VRAM. I will probably change the GPU when a couple of generations after the RDNA 2 is out.

 

[Crayon]

8 main + 8 gpu. Have two empty slots just in case but i think i like the way things run now.
