How much RAM do you need for gaming?
Kirjoittanut Datorhjälp Lerumin korjaamotiimi, tietokoneteknikot ja it-asiantuntijat · Päivitetty

RAM affects how many programs you can keep open beside the game — and reduces stutter when loading worlds. In 2026, 16 GB is minimum for modern titles; 32 GB is recommended if you stream or run Discord + Chrome with many tabs.
8, 16 and 32 GB
8 GB: only lighter games and older titles — not recommended for new AAA 2026.
16 GB: sweet spot for most gamers without heavy streaming.
32 GB: modded games, streaming, Chrome + Discord + game at once.
Dual channel matters
Two memory modules (2×8 GB or 2×16 GB) give better bandwidth than one module.
Check motherboard QVL list for compatible kits if you build yourself.
Upgrade an existing PC
We identify DDR generation, free slots and max capacity in the workshop.
Combine RAM upgrade with SSD if load times still annoy — see /en/knowledge/gaming-pc/ssd-vs-nvme-gaming.

Usein kysytyt kysymykset
Does more RAM help more than a faster GPU?
If you already have 16 GB+ GPU matters more for FPS. With 8 GB RAM upgrade is often cheaper than a new graphics card.
