Anyone with that much 64GB RAM is probably doing something you don’t see every day, maybe something you’re not even aware of as a regular thing.
But there is a requirement of my system, make no mistake.
Those who are using 64GB RAM in their new PC said the advantages were:
• Unlimited downloads
• Lower OS crash rates
• More applications are useful
• More games are ready to be played
No matter how good computers get, there’s a temptation for users to mess things up. So maybe, if you’re on a budget, you should avoid buying a computer with 64GB RAM.
Some people simply cannot afford to buy a PC with such massive memory – let alone install 32GB or even 64GB RAM.
One person wrote in with the idea of putting 64GB RAM in his PC and then toying with it until he gets the best experience out of it.
A popular hardware builder in Asia has opened a new computer factory, and one of the machines he’s installed is a 64GB RAM machine.
It has 64GB RAM Plus a 1TB hard drive plus 64GB eMMC storage.
The RAM is clocked at 833MHz to ensure the best performance. The 64GB RAM is certainly not easy to install on any machine.
You have to install 64GB of memory into the storage, then the memory, add the graphics, install the operating system, tweak a couple of other settings, and you’re done.
This type of installation can be tricky – but that’s why people are installing 64GB RAM in their new computers.
Those who are using 64GB RAM in their new PC said the advantages were:
Those people who have decided to go this route might be excited about the idea of having their high-end PC be more than capable of downloading tons of games and other applications without crashing. However, this machine is limited to 64GB of RAM.
So, you can have your 32GB for movies, your 64GB for downloading games, and your 128GB for downloading and storing lots of photos and other stuff.
People have been known to keep over-extended RAM running.
I have 64GB of RAM because memory’s cheap and I use 64GB of RAM.
Ok, not always. Right now, I’m editing some pictures with Adobe Photoshop.
I have several PDF pages open, three 1440p monitors (one ultra-wide), a six-core processor, and my PC eating up about 11.6GB of memory.
On the other hand, I have a photography application that can demand far more memory.
I like to shoot large composite photos. I have one series of about 225 images (of Il Duomo in Florence, Italy) that I’m working on that typically sucks down about 36GiB… not counting whatever else is eating up resources.
A while back, I was working on some webserver stuff, which involved coordination of multiple Linux virtual machines pretending to be on the internet.
It was a huge advantage to have enough memory to keep each of those virtual computers fully functional… not to mention CPUs.
I also do video editing. The application I use, MAGIX Vegas, is not terribly memory hungry, at least not with HD video.
But where I editing in 4K, I would probably not be comfortable in less than 32GiB memory?
And if I were using Adobe Premiere Pro, probably more like 64GB for that.
In short, large memory is primarily a specialty thing these days.
