Buddy it's 2025 not 2015. 16G RAM is ok if the laptop is $500 or less, or if the laptop is from 2010s era. Turn on your laptop and doing nothing with Window 11, your RAM is already at 50%+.Do me a quick favor, on your Dell Latitude or equivalent that you are using at work, once freshly booted up, open 5 tabs of Google Chrome, with one of the them is Youtube and watch a fullHD or 4K video. I don't want nothing else open on the laptop, no visual studio, or Word or Excel or Adobe PDF etc.See how much RAM right now, more than 70%, right, probably 85%.Now, imagine doing anything else on top of that, most people having 10 - 20 tabs open, and also doing Word, Excel, Outlook, Adobe PDF etc. 16G RAM will be at 80%+ all the time, that's not good, that stressing out your RAM. Your intergraded Intel graphics GPU card is also sharing your RAM too, so if you playing any light games or doing any 3-D tasks such as viewing a 3D tour of a home in Zillow, your GPU wants some of the RAM, your RAM will be 100%.On top of all of that, we're talking about this particular laptop, a ASUS Vivobook S 16 2.8K OLED, Ultra 9 285H, Thunderbolt, Backlit, 1TB, 16 hr battery ... All amazing specs with... 16G of un-upgradable RAM - I'd pass.
You're wrong on every single one of these points, I'm too tired to argue with you though. I shared a video in another one of these arguments where someone, like yourself was claiming the same things. As I said earlier, as long as the system has a decently fast SSD, the RAM isn't an issue. On top of that Chrome shipped a feature a while back that decommissions inactive tabs to free up memory automatically. I'm not sure what your obsession is with "Dell Latitudes", but it's cracking me up. You sound very old Big Grin
