100%. I did get a 32gb mini pc this summer. win 11 is not as stable as win 10 on ddr3, mostly sleep/monitor issues. and 780m on ddr5 is about the same for gaming as 1660s on ddr3. Don't chase gaming frame rates until prices get more reasonable. If you somehow don't have a PC more recent than ddr3, then it's not time to get into gaming, but upgrading cpu/gpu and an extra 16gb ram is likely the better value compared to new system.
