Just curious. I see people building their rigs with 12gb, 16gb, 32gb, 64gb, etc. I don't see the point in that. I have 8gb of RAM and have never utilized more than 75%. I play games on triple screens and usually run about 60% or RAM. The only time I get close to 75% is when I am running video editing programs, photoshop, or CAD. If you have utilized more than 8gb of RAM post what you were doing.

I have 16 GB and when I render, I use up to 90% and sometimes when I game I get up to around 70-85%

I have 16 GB of RAM and i rarely go over 4 GBs usage, but when i am playing intensive games like Titanfall it will usually go to about 6 GBs of usage so no i never go over 8 GBs in my personal experience

One day dude. If I win the lottery I am sending you 128GB RAM and Windows Ultimate for you to use it. Imagine a 120GB RAM disc. Dem speeds would be epic.
