If it's cheap it's not. And if you have Photoshop installed on your computer, you will use those 16gb of ram.

Not to mention it helps a lot if you keep a lot of browser tabs open. It's just better for multitasking.

You should, with that configuration you're either stuck in single channel or flex mode.
>>
You absolutely NEED 16Gb
But only because every current application has massive memory leaks
>>
>>54644459
It's a weird amount of RAM that's hard to really take advantage of.
It's too much to be even close to utilized under most normal workloads, and it's too little to make a noteworthy RAMdisk with. And the workloads that do take advantage of 16GB RAM would be better off with more as well.

I'm laughing how ridiculous that msi afterburner looks.
