16gb ram? What is this the 2000's.
I switched my 32 GB desktop from Windows to Linux and, honestly, 32 GB is probably a waste for most users. I'm using 7/32 GB's and I'm actively:
I just launched Steam and RAM went up to 8 GB's, which is a fraction of what Windows uses while doing nothing. I can only see myself needing the extra overhead when running VM's which I don't see a lot of people wanting to do on a device aimed at gaming.
This is similar to what I've experienced too but don't be surprised if someone tells you that it's impossible for windows to use less ram than Linux. There's one of those people in every thread.
Huh? He's literally saying Linux is using way less.
Which is what I'm agreeing with..?
Quite literally not how your comment reads to me. It reads as if your experience is that windows can use less but people will argue that it's not possible.
Oh shit you're right. I said that but meant the opposite lol
It's cool and all when we are talking about native apps, but in modern day and age most of the work tools for remote work is usually in the browser. And in browser if page takes 1gb of ram on windows, it will take same 1gb of ram on linux. It just how it is.
On top of that, things like discord (unofficial clients banned, mind you), Spotify, vscode, etc. all use electron, which means just another browser. Oh and games also will take same or more ram, cause in best case scenario (for ram use) it's a container with steam runtime and native executable and in worse — just windows game running thru proton.
no thx
Without context that data means nothing.
Here's my server (not my desktop) hosting just a few services:
I am curious, what are you running that's using that much RAM?
Two web browsers and vscode (so another web browser... Sigh). No other dev stuff though as that's all remote.
16 GB is perfectly usable even for heavy games, it's still more than what the PS5 has (which is 16GB but shared with the GPU)
The PS5 is about to be a last gen console. I would absolutely not buy a new PC without 32GB of RAM. But gamers have to defend literally everything gabe does no matter what.
I graduated highschool in 2004, so I'd say roughly around 2002 I was marveling at the massive 1GB hard drive my friend got lol
I think 16GB of ram would have blown our minds.
Huh, I got a PC in 1997 with a 2GB hard drive. It didn't take long (a year or so) for that to start feeling small compared to others my friend had. He got an 8 GB HD in probably 1998 and a 20 GB shortly after. It was ram I remember being so small. That PC I mentioned from 97 had 24 MB RAM which was good in 1997. It took a couple of years for anyone I knew to exceed 64 MB.
When I was a in high school Staples ran a deal for a 64GB flashdrive for $64 (1/2 off). My mom and I each bought 1 and it was such a steal! I felt like the coolest nerd at school with so much capacity! I considered trying to install UT2004 on it to play at school (I never did but knew nothing about computers and thought it'd work at that age).
I bought a 16Gb laptop in 2012, which is out of the noughties, but still 14 fucking years ago.
14 years before that I had 32Mb; a 500* multiplier.
Gonna guess you mean USB drive, and not HDD.
In 2004, 128 and 256 GB HDDs were pretty standard, and if you had some extra budget to throw at a PC, you could get a 1TB.
My budget laptop in 2004 had a 128GB HDD, 256MB RAM (quickly upgraded to 768MB) and like a 1ghz dual core processor.
I remember having a 512MB usb stick and thinking that I would never have to delete anything off it, because I would never have enough word docs or projects at school to fill it up all the way.
I mean we are in the 2000's
