memory is actually measured in binary as opposed to storage
>>
>>109868181
GB is binary. GiB was only made up when lying marketers started using base 10 to inflate drive capacities. Fuck marketers and fuck kibi shit.

having ram is a meme

I got 16gb for my 2014 build
even that was considered overkill back then
getting 32gb without a good reason in 2012 would be like getting 256gb today for gaming

You only need ram if you're using Wangblows. I have 16gb and have never exceeded 4gb of usage. I average 1.6gb usage.
I don't game tho.

get a toilet street shitter
your curryniggerOS needs 50GB just to boot, which no macnigger has, so it rapes your soldered SSD 24/7

programming, watching (tr)anime, browsing 4chan
32g is complete overkill for me but the 9700x shreds in compilation + my cpu emulator

>>109868586
>Programming
What kind of programming, anon?
>>
>>109868595
osdev on my fantasy computer, will post it here when i get display server + window manager running in a year or so

Give it to me straight, internet strangers
https://pangoly.com/en/price-trends/ram/16gb-ddr4
Should I just accept it and buy the fucking RAM now. DDR4 just seems to cost this much now, it stabilized at about 3 times the old price

There's no way I'm changing my whole shit to be DDR5 this decade I don't think. I'm sticking with AM4
