16 GB of RAM is not enough
how about 17 GB?
>>1091555218 werks on my machine.
>>109155521Download more RAM then.
>>109155521it's only accpetable if you need more than 16GB becuase of work/your job reasons, anything else make you a gay pussy faggot newfag.
8 works on my macbook
>>10915552118 gb? What are you gonna need 8GB for, goy? 4GB? You're robbing me!
>>109155521Scarcity is a good thing.
>boughted 4x 48gb ddr5 6000 cl32 in septemberI don’t see the issue
That's true, but also somehow> have 64gb RAM> less than 7gb is used
2GB can barely play 4chan vids
>>109155521My personal laptop with debian runs just fine with 8G. My work laptop with windows 11 is slow as fuck and super laggy and barely usable.
How much ram is required to smoothly surf the web with a lot of tabs?
>>109156109usecase for a lot of tabs? You can only view one at a time.
>>109155630cool jacket, ngl
>>109156121Lots of active 4chan threads, 1 tab for music, maybe 2-3 for videos i plan to watch/rewatch, 1 for gaming. I know bookmarking exists but that takes extra effort and most of the links would be dead.
>>10915552132GB was normal in 2014what fucking year are you living in, nigger?
4GB works on my arch linux machine
itt: retards, people who bought all the ram they needed years ago, retards who do nothing with their machine, and whiny poorfags
Have you techlets never heard of compression?>have 8gb ram on laptop>install zram, set to 200%>increased usable memory to ~20gbThis thing will still last me a good long while.
>>109155521>/pcbg/ was still recommending 16 GB just 4 years ago
>>109156109At 220 loaded firefox tabs (and not much running in the background) my fagbook m4 pro with 24gb ram is right on the edge of having to offload to ssdyou could get away with 16 with a more saner amount of tabs. 8 seems unworkable
>>109155521That's what happens when people who don't know actual tech are making tech decisions for the whole world. I recently found that second-hand DDR3 RDIMMs are cheap where I live, so maybe that's a way to grab some working stuff to push through the next 5-10 years.
>>109156783>ddr3is no longer being used in machines less than 15 years old or so
>>1091555214 werks on my windows 10 ltsc iot T400
>>109156194>Lots of active 4chan threadshave you tried the thread watcher under settings in the default extension?
>>109156799So? I have quite a few machines with DDR3, they are fine. Sure, no raytraced or Unreal 5 games, but otherwise it's not that bad. These DIMMs though are RDIMM (registered ECC), that's why they're cheap, but you can find a motherboard for these and used Xeons from around 2011-2014 or so.
>>109155521for you.
>>109156218No it wasn't 32gb back then was the 64gb of today. Everyone got 16gb back then, the pleb machines came with 8 or 12gb
>>109156252so you've established you're the whiney one in your list
I've got 64GB and I've never seen use go over 16GB. its all lies I tell you
>>109156121Monitorlets will never understand looking at 40 tabs simultaneously
>>109155977This is my experience as well. I think most people complaining about the ram squeeze fit into one or more of these categories:1. Winjeet user2. Requires three dozen open browser tabs of tranny porn to cum3. Runs several virtual machines4. Video editing
>>109157438>2. Requires three dozen open browser tabs of tranny porn to cum>3. Runs several virtual machines>4. Video editingI am in this post and I do not like it
>>109157438Two or three firefox windows (different profiles), with google workspace ram vampire tabs open in them (I have no choice) starts to push 16 gigs to the limit because of all the tranny programming
AND I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR RAMBUT I WON'T DO THAT
>bought stalker 2 on release>buggy pile of shit runs terribly>fuggggg might as well upgrade>go to am5 and 92gb ram so itll be enough for the next decade>go from 3060 12gb to 4070ti super>get 2x 4tb ssd cause they’re cheap as fuck so might as well>stalker runs well now but the game itself is pretty mediocre, fml>18 months pass>after six gorillion updates stalker is now pretty decent>the total desktop upgrade cost roughly as much as what I’d pay for the ram alone nowThank you stalker
>>109159063>stalker runs well now but the game itself is pretty mediocre, fmlKek literally me with Crysis, finally get a big boi 7970 and 4.5GHz chip to run the motherfucker at 1920x1200 Very High like the 2007 wet dream, and the game is mid

I had 16gb of ram in 2011 and it cost £140
>>109159473was it enough then?
>>109156109>lot of tabs1000? what are we talking here?
>>109155521IT WOULD BE IF PEOPLE OPTIMIZED EVEN A LITTLE FUCKING BIT!
>>109159543>A LITTLE FUCKING BITheh
i DREAM of having 16GB, 8 is barely enough if i don't open too much stuff, even on linux
>>10915953940 or so up to around 50
>>109159504It was completely excessive desu, but it's still crazy to me that a decade and a half later there are still machines on 16gb, even 32gb is barely progressing compared to what things used to be like. 15 years prior to getting that 16gb set my machine had 8mb ram
My phone has 16GB of RAM and I think it's enough
>>109155521It's enough if you're not using more. I've only needed 32GB a few times and most of those times it was a memory leak in some program so having 32GB let me use the program for a bit longer. More than 32GB only when doing something a bit insane.
>>109159543This, Linux Mint XFCE still fucking usable on 4GB of ram for internet use which is as bloated as your usage is these days, 8GB still main machine territory unlike MacOS and Winbloat, 16GB is big dick, and 32GB and beyond is big dick baller
>>109156109just close the browser chud
>>109156252trvke
>>109161145i shall not close the browser
>>109157438Windows runs fine on 8gb ram, the problem is just the ui being coded in react. Win10 is still fairly snappy.
i have 32gb on my 4690k i5 rig and it barely uses 60% of the RAM before the CPU maxes out at 100% so yeah OP is probably right
>>109159543cool it with the anti-semitic remarks
