RAM

Why do you need more than 4GB of ram? You really don't need more than 4 unless you're a fucking gaymer

I need 4GB for browsing web alone.

Op kys

This is bait, but I'll concede that 4GB is fine if you don't multitask and only have one or two tabs max opened in a web browser, though one could argue you'd be better off just owning a smartphone or tablet if that's all the computing you do.

8GB has been more than enough for 5 years, and doesn't seem like that's changing yet.

My only complaint is that you're on wifi.

8gb hasn't been enough for games for a couple of years now

fuck gaymes

Virtualizing you fucking turd

Oh I didn't hear you over your PC's fan with Windows 10 using 2 GB of RAM while idling.

>one or two tabs max
I could have 10 tabs comfortably with 1GB

Disk Cache makes things faster. Add to that the fact that windows uses a fuckton of RAM on idle

I like having 60 tabs open faggot

what're you gonna do about it? Come snap my ram in half because its too much?

Please inform me how you survive with 4gb...
I barely make it on 8....

is this the new bait kids use these days?

You just learn to live with it until you can upgrade

I am a graphic designer , I NEED 16 gb at bare minimum in order to not impeed my workflow. With only 4 gb of ram in my workstation i would spend more time rendering than working

I would have 32 if prices weren't terrible.

Thank you based annon

I live with 2. I am the OP. You learn to live with it. Work around it. Chances are you use bloated shit way too hard. What are you running on right now? I can save your soul.

because my browsing habits
my virtualization,
my projects
If you are satisfied with 4gb you may be an office drone, in which case you dont need more, or even less depending on your tasks.

Running Dw+Ps+Ai+FFforPreview+music player+Maybe Pr or Ae

Based

Three instances of intellij
Chrome
Slack
Discord
Various docker containers
One or two webservers.

It adds up

I'm a fucking gaymer and I got 4GB of RAM, only shit I cant run are Far Cry 4 and later, CoD Ghosts/BO3 and later, Dying Light, Gears of War 4

>currently using 7.5gb memory
All I'm doing is watching a youtube video with like 20 tabs of Jow Forums open

Fuck off with the cuck porn webms, though.

all porn is cuck porn

Compiling

>implying my work doesn't require more than 4gb of ram
Aren't you too young to post in Jow Forums?

must be some really slick minimal browser you're using.

My x220 can benefit greatly from 16gb, but I've been living off of 4gb like it was my nread and butter.

*bread
Also fuck bread, keto 4 life

Only ricing kiddies need more than 1GB

i've never needed more than 2gb on any of my systems

Except for gaming browsers also consume a large amount of ram as they're also multimedia capable.

And you could also use extra ram like a disk that holds data until the power goes off for temporary installations or files that should only remain for a session.

Because software is getting shittier and shittier with every "update", using more memory to do the same things.

OP is just coping with being poor.

try using Maya or Max + Vray or Redshift with less than 8GB you fucking retarded poorfag

Just sitting here browsing the web with my background programs running and i'm hitting 13GB usage.

This
Shitty browsers made 4GB the absolute minimum

Yeah, I game on my MacBook all the time.

working on a 4k timeline with 16bit color After Effects needs over 64gb ram to cache previews after a couple of minutes of footage

Why do you need to remind me about it?

Because I’m using triple channel ddr3 so I have 6gb.

Gentoo + 2BWM eat 128 MiB Ram.

Because I make music. Remember music?

Tomorrow I'll upgrade my PC with 16GB of RAM.
