My Windows 11 uses 6GB.

16 GB is barely still fine these days unless all you do is web browsing. any kind of work is gonna eat into 16 GB pretty quick. development, graphics design, video editing, video games. you'll want 32 at least these days, and it's pretty cheap these days too

On the contrary. Fun story: some time ago I was cleaning my pc. For some retarded movement or who knows I dislodged a bit one of the ram modules. I ended up with 4gb for fuck knows how long till one day I opened the task manager and was like "wait a minute, why I have only 4gb ram?"

What's the usecase for more than 8gb of ram?

I have 32 GB of RAM and I will put my right hand on a bible and swear that I have seen Firefox consume nearly 16 GB with like 16 tabs.

It's probably done that with half as many tabs.

16GB isn't even enough for me to do my work.

I upgraded to 16GB and I was told Windows would start using that memory. Basically this person was claiming that free space in memory is wasted memory and that Windows can adapt and free up memory when it needs to.
That didn't happen at all. I was using 6GB idle and now I'm using 6.8GB idle.
So I guess it was true a little bit

our software already runs in containers with 128Mb mem limit (request is far lower)
developing is a whole different ballgame.
vscode + browser take more than 16GB
that's basically it, fucking web browsers (vscode is a web browser at core) are the reason for these insane memory requirements

to people salivating at this picture, having this much ram is useless even for llm because you will get hyper bottlenecked by cpu/gpu before even consuming half that ram
chink ram is cheap as fuck, you can reach those numbers for pennis by buying them from ali
but you cannot cheap out on cpu and gpu, so at the end of the day you're still spending over $2000 with these two parts alone

Why isn't DDR3 still good?

poor people are so funny with their daily cope threads. no no you shouldnt get to work and get shit done. just cope 24/7 on anonymous basket weaving forum

I have 64GB and I can't even work with 32GB anymore

unironically one app uses up to 29 GB and I use it daily

VM rapes my ram since I splurge up to 8GB to one session

yeah

then comes browser into play with stream/video/chaturbate

then I have couple ram left and I make sure to use that shit too

I wish I had 128GB right now

>what are the actual use cases of 64Gb?
I got some pretty big data (matrices representing simulation data). It's real nice to be able to keep it all in memory while doing processing like gaussian elimination and so on, and having to constantly read and write disk when doing that is a real drag.
For bigger data, got a server with 4TB allocated to one VM. Not so many motherboards cope with more memory than that.

This RAM alone cost me 800$, it's registered ECC. I care about my data.
For ECC you also will need a more expensive CPU & mobo (unless you want to go with uncertified gamer junk), so I ended up with a w7-2495X (2500$) and the asus W790-ACE mobo (800$). Also, most consumer CPUs max out at 192GB or below (and have issues running that stable anyway). That said, most people don't need this obviously

84 4chan tabs (no embeds), 1 discord tab, 1 youtube music tab, 1 youtube tab. and remember, picrel only shows private working set;
2-3 week old session. firefox memory leakage starts to get bad after about a week
if i were to close the vast majority or all of the tabs i predict it would still hog multiple GB more than can be explained. reopening the tabs in a fresh session also consumes much less. chromium is much better in this regard
i will post an update when i nuke most and then all of the tabs later, as an update to librewolf is due anyway

Yes because performance matters and 8GB isn't enough for browsing. It's like buying a Win98 box with 32MB.

DDR3 are as low as $5-7 a pop used on fleaBay. Do you really need new?
I don't know about that "Teamgroup" brand, and I wouldn't ask /g/ for recs when they are willing to buy chinkshit and not mind getting chinked and having to pay more over time than buying from a reputable brand of parts.
A-Tech brand RAM is inexpensive and with good rep, for instance.

Older machines are constantly being bought and resold, DDR3 is useful for anyone picking up an older machine that cannot benefit from DDR4 and DDR5 RAM sticks.
What really overpriced these days is second-hand DDR2 memory.

>>100219897

>>100241311
>don't know about that "Teamgroup" brand, and I wouldn't ask /g/ for recs when they are willing to buy chinkshit
Teamgroup has been around alot longer than you probably been fucking with PCs
Either way to care about RAM brand is low IQ. Doesn't matter if it's A-Tech, g.skill or whoever, it's coming from the same 3 fabs

Not if you're a gooner that always ends up with at lease 200 tabs in any session.

i poweruse librewolf on the daily and i have replicated this scenario many times before. you are admitting that there is "something wrong" but that it's my fault somehow
leave firefox/librewolf open for a couple of weeks browsing like you do normally and see for yourself
