I think 6 gigs of ram is the max that you need

because you'll never use that many gigs unless you purposefully do it due to buyers remorse

Not everyone is going to start editing videos on software worth a grand. You are describing like 3% of the computer user population.
>>46828451
cinelerra or kdenlive - foss, but pretty excellent linux video editors - will easily eat it up, especially if you use background rendering in cinelerra without having a render farm over network
>>46827041
Piss off
>>46828300
Lol... at that much RAM chances are the Windows version itself might not support that much RAM.
Pretty sure Windows 7 Home Premium only supported up to 16GB... while professional was 64GB.
Not about the RAM limitations on Windows 8.
>>46828638
u dont own ssd's do you?
>>46827611
I can easily push past 8GB without trying. In fact, I recently upgraded my CPU, mobo and RAM but only got 8GB at the time rather than the 12GB like I had and I've found it restricting.
Got another 8GB arriving today with some luck.
I actually do need 12+

I think I got it up to 6gb used once, which was like 3 VMs running that I allocated like 4gb to each. Not sure how that worked but yeah.
>>46827611
I idle at 4gb on windows 8 and when I use professional software or some videogaymes it pushes it into 12gb+ zone.

Playing a game and having chrome open uses 60-80% of ram. I also often have mumble open and sometimes other things. I use 8gb often
My brother says his games were running slow and lagging. I told him it's his outdated GPU trying to run new games.

Whut?
I have exactly 8 :^)
>>46833843
I have used it. I don't like windows either but i don't find it nearly as useless as osx. I prefer GNU/Linux (no, i don't prefer a particular distro but i do prefer Xfce)
>>46833983
How the hell can you be a Linux user and find Windows more useful than OS X? OS X does pretty much everything Linux can besides catering to freetards, meanwhile Windows can boot and that's about it.
>>46834018
I don't like the way OSX relies to much on the dock to launch apps. I prefer having a menu to find and launch apps to Apples iOS like menu which i find missplaced for a desktop OS. But i do like the fact that OSX uses bash
>>46834053
It doesn't rely on the dock, use Spotlight
>open Terminal
Cmd+Space, T, return
>open Opera
Cmd+Space, O, return
etc.
You can use it to search for files and programs by content and metadata as well.
>>46834082
That just seems slow to be honest. I can use keyboard shortcuts to launch programs in Linux too. And manually searching for apps also seems slower than just using a traditional menu
>>46834112
It's much faster than using you cursor to open a program, especially since you don't need to pin every program you want quick access to to a specific place or anything
>>46834154
I understand and i can probably do the same thing in Linux but i just find it so weird
>>46834226
Try it out, it saves a lot of time
>>46834251
I'll try to find something like it for Linux (i saw something similar in a video a couple of weeks ago) and i'll give it a shot
