One of the major advantages of running 64GB is letting your laptop run for weeks without memory leaks consuming all your RAM.BoredAtWork wrote: ↑ I’ve been running this set after getting it during prime days and honestly only peaked at 33gb usage and that’s leaving a lot of chrome tabs and 2 VMwares (set at 8gb each)
Never had an issue when I had 2x8 and ran just 1 vmware at a time
Probably could have just stuck to 2x16 to be honest and save that $100 towards a larger nvme ssd

I use my laptop mainly as a workstation and sometimes for travel, I almost never restart it or turn it off, and on 32GB I often exhausted my memory.
Those days are gone now.
I don't disagree, my use case isn't common. This thread is niche'd to heavy power users with significant memory demands.BoredAtWork wrote: ↑ I hear you but windows always restarts with updates every few weeks for me so never ran into issues with memory leaks and I always have the VMware’s on
Just putting it out there if you are at 8/16gb, maybe go to 32gb and use the extra $100 towards a better nvme ssd
Here's your run of the mill 64GB kit for a standard workstation (no RGB, Heatsinks, 3200Mhz, etc.)
