Rocking 64GB on my desktop after an opportunistic upgrade a couple of years ago and barely using 32GB most of the time
Mine has 48GB. Started with 16, but a few years ago the pc started crashing/freezing randomly. I assumed it was because of bad ram, so I just bought a new set of 32GB, since it was pretty cheap, but the crashes continued after switching to the new ram. So I added the old 2x8gb sticks back in and now I have 48.
Turned out it was the cpu that was bad.
I had 32 GB of ddr4 3200 speed Corsair.
About a year ago I found a new in box 32GB Corsair exact same set of ram I had at a bin store and bought it for a whopping.... $5.
I have no need for 64GB, but even a year ago $5 ram was just way too cheap to not buy.
Same here. Should have went for two 2 To SSDs instead of one too by the looks of it...
I upgraded to 128GB on our server at the point where RAM was the cheapest and oh boy is it tempting to sell half of it.
