There is literally no reason to go beyond 1080p 60 fps.
Prices are still extremely affordable for that bracket.

If someone fell for the 4k meme that's their fault

>>107675865
Tell that to people that write desktop widgets in React, using 1.2 GB RAM for displaying a list of boxes with text.

Sounds like 16 gigs should do just fine
>>107675914
Like 20 bucks more for the reasonable stuff.
>noooo the shit that used to cost 3k now costs 5k!

Okay, and? They should be like 10 bucks.
>>
>>107676066
They never were 10 bucks

>dodges the question and runs away
lmao typical

I bought my 16 GB for about 5 usd.

>>107676054
Borderlands 4, DOOM Dark Ages, Hogwarts Legacy, Space Engineers, Minecraft w/ Shaders & Textures, Black Desert, Warframe on new tilesets past 1999 update, Cyberpunk 2077, Skyrim with mods, Witcher 3 with mods/RTX, Metro Exodus Enhanced.
There just a few as I scrolled my library of garbage.
>inb4 they run just fine
Yeah if you play on low, maybe, no thanks though.

>>107676065
Don't pretend like you do something more useful on your PC than game, you're literally posting here, faggot.

wut? I have 16 gigs of RAM and have no problem with those games.

This isn't /v/, tardlard.

you can't compile rust or llvm on system with 16gb.
The trannies are going to freak
>>
>>107676106
Not 10 bucks cheap, that was never going to happen.
Is it overpriced? Yes.
Is it the OMG END OF EVERYTHING PC IS OVERRRRR apocalypse? Not really. Retards who blow money on fads will lose even more money, big fuckin deal

That's a nice thought, but I kinda do.
>>
>>107676106
That's bullshit, try building a 2006-accurate PC, see how much that runs you. Older parts become more expensive as they're not manufactured anymore.
>>
Bought a ryzen mini pc for 200€ and 32gb of ddr5 for 60€ in 2024.
>>
>>107676139
I sculpt in blender just fine with 16 GB of RAM.
>pajeet engine
your loss

now give me a list of good games that can't run on that

>>107675865
>I only PEW PEW PEW!
no, YOU dont need more RAM because YOU dont use a computer
>>
>>107676065
If you're 18 or older you get called "unc"
>>
>>107675865
Exactly, you're paying for nothing. 32GB used to be $50
>>
>>107676054
>>107675875
What games has to do with that? RAM is for programs and browsers. I'm sure most of the games will even run at 8gb.
>>
>>107675865
What would be more performant: two sticks of 8GB DDR4, or four sticks of 4GB DDR4?
>>
>>107677574
two sticks of 8GB

Sure, I can live with that. Now, as we were saying, I need more to run my bing bing wahoos.
>>
>>107676092
All of those games work within 8GB of RAM if you're on Linux.

Best I can do is 16GB of DDR3 2133.

No seriously I have two more 8gb sticks but slots 1 and 3 blew back in like 2018
32gb was beyond overkill back in 2011.
>>
>>107677574
Performance degrades the more sticks there are

is windows really that bad?

>>107675865
with 80 bucks and a little extra you could invest in four months of ChatGPT Plus and easily multiply that investment ten folds with competent vibe prompting.
Only a tard would invest in hardware now days, the future is cloud.

oh no, you're totally wrong.

We hate you, and we want you to be subject to the inquisition.

local gen is the modern press. We fought the barrel lovers over this in 1776.

Not even grandma can survive on that with 10 tabs open given how unoptimized modern software is.

Less RAM means a greater portion will be consumed by the telemetry machine of big tech. Even if you try to limit it, and especially if you (may god rest your soul) use windows.

Yeah, you need to cure your autism. You aren't communicating, you're retarded.
