Hey mate,

What do you use your PC for? If you just do a lot of gaming you do not need 16 GB of RAM. The extra 8 GB won't really improve your gaming performance on most games!

Hey mate,

I like to do more than one thing at once and I like it to still be fast when doing different stuff at the same time. So I often use all my RAM when I got 8 GB, but I don't feel the big difference between 8 and 16 GB. I mainly just want enough :D

Any suggestions on upgrades?

depending on what games you like to play or do in your spare time, I'd upgrade the graphics too a GTX770, I was so pleased when I did so myself.
