Lol that awkward moment you budgeting for a 8GB Ram
But you realise that people on this group got 16+ GB Ram already

 

[Kris Kris]

you don't really need more than 8

 

[Andrew Jones]

Got 32 for the price of 16 ddr4 around the holidays

 

[Brandon Johnson]

With todays games i suggest 16gb of ram.. most games will swallow 8gb with ease

 

[Joe Heller]

I run 8 and have 0 problems with any games.

 

[Adel Yasser]

Youll be fine
Not safe in the future but fine
You can get another 8gb stick anytime

 

[Shamie-Ray Samuel Ramsamuj]

Well if it makes u feel better I still have 8.

 

[Connor Jacobs]

I've got 1 stick of 8GB and i never have any problems. 8GB is the minimum

 

[Dave Coleman III]

8gb is fine if you're JUST gaming, and don't need to multitask while you do it.

 

[Drew Leonard]

most current titles are crushing system ram when you only have 8.16gb is becoming standard pretty quickly in 2017. but youll be fine for a bit its a budget build so i doubt you are expecting to max all games anyways

 

[Ron Gizzi]

8 is acceptable, 16 is nice to have a somewhat future proof if your just gaming.

 

[Debsurya Ganguly]

8 gb here

 

[Anthony Tolbert]

16 gb is to stay on the safe side

 

[Patric Hoog]

32gb

 

[Rohan Tickoo]

My 5 year old laptop has 16gb ram :3

The thing is ram isnt that big of a deal as far as parts go, but if you are having issues procuring 16gb you probably had to compromise on gpu which is the most important part of any gaming pc

 

[Ahmed Al]

i have 8gb ballistix ddr4 and im playing most of the AAA games with high/ultra settings no lags so far

 

[Leslie Graff]

You don't need to have what everyone else has, just have what you need/afford. My new build is running on 8gb and mayyyyybe I'll add another down the line but right now, I don't need to.

 

[Imtiaz Emu]

10gb here

 

[Luke Boyss]

8GB here laptop though
