I'm building my first gaming PC and I'm a bit torn on how much RAM to get. Should I go for 32GB or is 16GB sufficient? Here's what my setup looks like so far: [Link to Parts List]. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

If you can swing it, definitely go for 32GB. But if that’s stretching your budget too much, 16GB will still do the job. Just make sure to go with a dual-channel setup (like 2x8GB or 2x16GB) for the best performance. For most games and general tasks, 16GB is usually enough, but 32GB feels like the sweet spot if you want a bit of extra headroom.
Thanks for the tip! I’m planning on getting a dual setup anyway, and if I spot a good deal on 32GB, I’ll go for it.
