How much ram do you really need? 4GB ? 256GB? 1.5TB ?! Do games like Tomb Raider and Rainbow 6 Siege only need 8GB to run well? We test a whole bunch of Corsair Vengeance LPX ram so you dont have to.

@seedz5132 4 года назад

@@2nd_Channel I do fine with my 32Gigs, but I only run pre PoCs on my machine, before deploying actual PoCs to my work's ESX hosts :> Although, nowadays I mainly focus on linux type deployements, sometimes with a Win2016 Active Directory / CAS server to see how the app react to it / can be integrated with it. So my VM RAM usage never really goes beyond 20Gigs (4 for Win2016, then at most 2 or 3 linux VMs running other things). Only problem is when I want to open Chrome and do research while my VMs run, then RAM starts to become a problem. Well, maybe my use case isn't really a full blown home lab as I move the VMs to real ESX hosts when I'm ready to deploy the PoCs, and don't really run them again afterwards on my own machine ! I'm wondering what you run on your lab setup ! . I agree on the fact that LTT always forgets us sys admins.. but at the same time, most of us know what we're doing and what we really need, so... :p

I have witnessed one case where it makes a huge difference, when you copy and paste or move large folders full of video files, or any files of very large size. The transfer graph shown under "details" will show a lightening fast transfer, until you get to the size of your ram, then the graph will crash down, and the remainder of the transfer will take forever, at a crawl.

@paulsd9255 2 года назад

Is that a matter of ram or of the hard drive’s cache though?

@lughar 2 года назад

I think its more ram space and OS HDD space available. I tried copying a 12gb folder and for the most part the transfer creates a temporary file or something just like win rar does while decompressing a file. It depends on the file size

Yeah, I totally know what you're talkin' about when it comes to upgrading RAM. That sh*t can make a huge difference, especially when you're movin' around those big ass video files.

@ezzyb7006 2 года назад

There is one more consideration and that is based on how Windows uses memory. Basically, for Windows the only bad memory is unused memory. If you have a set of programs that you open and close often you can certainly make your desktop experience snappier (for lack of a better term) with more memory. This is why I upgraded from 16gb to 32gb. Windows just leaves files that you've opened in memory even when you close a program. It doesn't reuse that memory until it runs out, it just leaves it all in Standby mode. So if you often reopen programs your experience will be somewhat quicker with additional RAM. I don't often reboot my PC, and I use a set of common applications most often, so this works out well for me. You can easily test this yourself by checking the load time of an application, then closing it and opening it again. Unless you're starved for RAM it will always load much quicker the second time.

I hit a memory limit doing some fluid sim stuff in Blender recently, at 64 GB. I'm upgrading to 96 GB this week, which I hope will be enough. I don't care about faster. This is about being able to do what I want, at all. As it happens, it's the cheapest upgrade I've ever done on this workstation, I surprisingly got a pretty good deal, so I'm not too upset about it. I almost went for 128 GB outright, and I think the next build I do will start with that, which kind of surprises me. I figured 64 GB was overkill when I built this machine, but I wasn't yet even doing 3D work back then. Now, finally, I understand what real RAM usage looks like. It's not just for VMs and browser tabs, anymore, LOL.

THIS!!! This was the exact video I needed to fully understand how much ram is necessary for anything. I kind of figured eight or 16 gigs was more than adequate for gaming and every day usage, 32 and 64 for video editing. As I’m going to be an engineer in the future, I never realized how many resources you really need to run solid works, or any of that software to account for so many variables. This video answered that question! Thank you so much, Linus tech tips! This is forever in my saves.

@krisby1 Год назад

I thought it was, but then it doesn't seem to take into account resolution, unless I missed it somewhere. Agreed 16Gb is enough for 1080 gaming, but is it for 1440p or 4k? I've literally upgraded from 16 to 32 today, to install tonight. Largely cos since I upgraded to a 1440p monitor, my system has had stutters, yet my average FPS is >10. I'm not convinced the RAM upgrade will fix it, but I can atleast rule it out whilst I try to determine the route cause. I should mention that the issue coincided with enabling SAM, ironically as a recommendation of Linus, but now, whether disabled or enabled in BIOS, I get stutters, so again, might be the 1440p increase, or something else. But, the point I was making from the start, this video is not that meaningful without resolution indicators.

@lobaxx 3 года назад

There's real servers setup and used in production that only have RAM, using in-memory databases. Instead of having a drive (SSD or HDD), you have a separate server providing the OS and software stack image, and then everything is just run on memory, full stop. In a world of micro services and Kubernetes orchestration of dockerized containers, with multiple instances run and scaled up on the fly, this is increasingly the way things are done. Servers with hard drives and long term persistence are becoming the specialized units rather then the norm.

I do a lot of heavy memory stuff on my work laptop, autocad, ignition, and a bunch of other apps and tabs open at any given time. Upgrading from 16 to 32 gigs of ram got rid of crashes and nearly all stutter from my system. On my 4 year old gaming desktop I'll be upgrading from 16 to 32 since its a very cheap upgrade at only 50 bucks, and I expect it to get a bit more fps on some of the newer games that are just starting to test the limits of my PC on high settings. So long as I get a stable 60+ fps on anything I want to play then I'll be happy.
