No. 16gb of RAM is plenty for gaming (outside of something like Flight Sim). You can add more, but it's going to set you back $100+ and only going to get you a few FPS.

I want to bite but I hate that they don't identify the PSU

Doesn't Windows reserve ram equal to the vram which means you need more RAM here you're just up with four gigabytes of RAM for playing a game the rest is reserved for vram am I wrong

I've never heard of that. Maybe you're thinking of integrated video where the RAM is shared for VRAM?

Prices for GPU's across the board are coming down gradually, this is fairly decent all things considered. For most people, this would be more than sufficient, the only considerations for upgrades right off would probably be another case fan or two to provide better cooling. Hope that helps.

No, that's not how it works. If you don't believe me when it comes to gaming performance, there are multiple videos on benchmarking 8gb vs 16gb.

The thing that's going to hold you back most, albeit not as much with an intel CPU, is if this was a single channel 16gb stick. Going single channel to dual channel, even keeping memory capacity the same, is going to make a bigger difference than going from 2x8gb to 2x16gb.

16 GB is plenty for most gamers. Would probably need 32 to keep up with games in the near future.

I bought a cyber power from Best Buy a few months ago and it was DEad on arrival. I tried reseating the RAM and GPU but no dice. Thankfully it was an easy return.

I feel like this is a good deal for a 3060

CyberPowerPC GXI1260, i7-9700K, 8GB RAM, 1TB SSD, GTX 1660 Ti 6GB, W10 GXI1260 (adorama.com) this is $150 more for a better processor but less ram and lower gpu

I think mileage varies between people with CyberPower, I had no problems at all with my GTX3070 build back in November. Definitely a luck of the draw I think.
