    Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I had 32G of RAM I could hook that up, cause apps dig a dude with memory.

    Well, not all apps.

    Well the kind of apps that’d let me watch two chicks at the same time do.

    Good point.

    I remember not long ago showing my linux desktop on reddit and everybody was going crazy because I was still using Firefox and Chrome is the browser to use nowdays and all that crap, I guess times have changed for the better, and yes I still use firefox

      I started to use firefox back in 2007.

      I have never changed back. If someday there’s a better alternative I’d switch. But sure thing that chromium based browsers are not an alternative.

    I have 32gb of ram.

    I literally only upgraded so I could install more mods in minecraft and cities skylines 1.

    Why is that in my personal laptop chrome works like shit and in my work laptop it works wonders?! The only difference between them is that in y professional laptop we have thousands of different security apps. It’s almost like chrome is shit because it invades u your computer like a virus lol

    I have 32GB and for most of what I do, which is normal desktop stuff and gaming, and occasionally messing with VMs, it’s fine if not overkill.

      I once had a machine with 4mb of ram. Was fine for Word 5.5 and Windows 3.1. Needed a boot disk to run Doom. Upgraded to 8mb and it was fine, if not overkill.

      Son, have you tried just pulling your computer up by its boot straps and telling it that it only needs 8mb of ram because that was fine 35 years ago? /s

    I bought two double rank 16gb sticks so I had the option of 64gb later, but with zero page file I have not had a single issue. I also horde tabs when online shopping, but I use extensions to prevent them from loading until selected. Still, never even been over 25gb in daily use and gaming. I also have a 3090 though so that 24gb vram soaks up a lot.

    I went with 64GB on my most recent build… partially because it will eventually be retired to be a server, partially because last time i did a new build with brand new RAM, RAM prices skyrocketed (tsunami hit Taiwan IIRC, but still) immediately afterwards

      I’ve recently really gotten into 3d printing, and I’ve bought the bullet and purchased a pretty nice 3D scanner (Crealty Raptor Pro).

      There’s no such thing as too much enough RAM for these scans.
