what does anyone ever need 32gigs of RAM for? is it some special appliacation like animating/rendering/solving advanced math problems/RAMdisk? even in my rendering machine here benchmarks showed barely any difference between 8 gigs and 16 gigs, certainly not enough of a difference to warrant spending money, and I mostly edit 4k footage with 80 chrome tabs running in the background.

also, the amount of 1 post posters seems almost cursed

Just in this one example, when I'm playing RDR2 while having some chrome tabs open I'm using up almost 16 Gb of RAM. I just got this laptop recently so I invested in long term gains to avoid future upgrades for as long as possible. I am quite surprised, I was sure 16 GB RAM is enough for gaming nowadays, looks like not for all games.

To be fair, Chrome eats up pretty much every bit of memory that it can find. I've got about 30 tabs open in Opera (basically Chrome without the Google) and a few other minor programs open (PuTTY, foobar2000, Notepad) and the Task Manager shows that 15.8 GB of memory are in use. I'm not even running a game! Windows eats up a lot of memory, too.

Anyway, it doesn't matter if we need 16 GB or 32 GB of memory now. I built for the future with 64 GB of memory. My last high-end gaming PC lasted for just over 10 years and I expect to get at least 5-6 out of this one!

I have heard the same as Kwami, i.e.: If you have 16 gigs of RAM, running a game and chrome, then the game will take X and chrome will always take RAM - X. If you up it to 32gigs, then Chrome will simply take more RAM. I have read some tests that compare performance between 16gigs and 32gigs and most of the time doubling the RAM gave you an FPS increase of 1 (!).

However I suppose there is absolutely no downside to running 32, and if you feel like your machine runs smoother with 32, than all the better for you!

The Gathering Storm Benchmark was 90.81 before I upgraded. I had a FX8350. And I upgraded to a 5600x. Same Vega 56 Graphics card. Ram is obviously different. After the upgrade it is now 53.26 seconds while in windowed mode with a bunch of Firefox tabs open. But perhaps most importantly it doesn't feel like it takes forever just to load a save/start a game. Definitely feels a lot more playable now. Though I should probably try giving it a bit of an overclock. I made sure to have plenty of cooling headroom and a decent enough board for it. But haven't gotten around to playing with it yet since the upgrade is still so fresh and I am finishing other aspects of the upgrade(monitor/desk/etc)

32GB DDR4-3333 cas 14
1080Ti @ 2560x1600
Win 10 64bit
Samsung 970 EVO 2TB NVMe

DX12 AI Benchmark: 6.83 seconds
DX12 GS AI Benchmark: 31.06 seconds

Multiple apps / AV / firewall etc running in the background

My DX 12 GS AI Benchmark has gone from 31.06 seconds a couple years ago to 52.30 seconds today. Not sure why this is. Rig is still running at the same settings as before. I have added a second 2TB Samsung 970 EVO NVMe drive that now houses only my Steam library (I checked and it is running at PCIe Gen 3 x4) and my monitor is now a 3840x2160 unit.

To be sure, I re-ran the benchmarks at 2560x1600 and 1920x1080 just to see if, somehow, it was graphics setting related, but all three times I got more or less the same result (+/- 0.75 seconds).

Why would my AI benchmark have gotten so much worse over the past couple years? I have also noticed that game load times have got noticeably worse than they were a couple years ago. Whereas before my games would be ready to go before Sean Bean had even finished narrating the first paragraph, now it sometimes goes to the very end of the second paragraph. I ran Samsung Magician benchmark on both my SSDs and am getting the same speeds as I was a year ago (unfortunately I don't have benchmarks from two years ago).

Surely this isn't Meltdown / Spectre mitigations (although I am fairly certain I'd have had those two years ago, as well) or 2K's new game launcher or some such?

Can anyone who ran this benchmark a couple years ago re-run their test and confirm what, if any, change there's been on their rigs?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Monitored Cores / Threads and all 6C/12T are getting loaded during the bench and temps are all around 67-77C (ambient 24C), so I'm at a complete loss for what could have caused this MASSIVE drop in game performance...

 

[Victoria]

Not sure why this is.

I’ll check tonight, I still have the same config but the game has radically changed with a lot of new content so there is probably some inefficient checks in there. I will not be surprised if mine has dropped also.

 

[Tocamac]

I’ll check tonight

Cheers! Could you also check your DX12 graphics Gathering Storm benchmark for me please? My graphics bench scores are also way lower than I thought they'd be.

I'm getting:

3840x2160
Avg: 46.996 ms
99th: 65.597 ms

2560x1600
Avg: 39.744 ms
99th: 56.323 ms

1920x1080
Avg: 40.627 ms
99th: 59.121 ms

These are all significantly lower than I'd imagine a 1080 Ti would run this benchmark.

Thanks again!

So a 1 second increase on AI benchmark, settings all the same? That’s fine, I guess. I just can’t imagine why mine has degraded so much.

Also I’m guessing that’s vanilla AI, not GS AI?

Edit: So I fixed my graphics performance, I had Vsync enabled and a 60fps frame cap on. As for the AI benchmark I have disabled the 2K Launcher and that has dropped my turn time by around 9 seconds, but I’m still a good 12 seconds off what it was a couple years ago. More investigation to follow…
