Setting Up A RAMDisk

Ok so I've been wondering if it's worth doing? I'd like it really to help using PS, and browsing, not so much gaming, 

 

I have 1x 750 GB WD Green with OS on and 1TB Seagate Barracuda which I keep media and PSD files on

 

8GB 2x4 Corsair Vengeance LP RAM, CL9 at 1600 mhz

 

I use about 3GB at idle / browsing

 

Do I need to buy more RAM before I can do this or shall I just partition off about half of it to the RAMDisk?

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 | Cooler: Stock | RAM: 16GB Hyper Fury X RGB | GPU: RTX 2080 Super FTW3 | Motherboard: Gigabyte Aorus Elite| PSU: Corsair RM850x
Storage: WD SN750 500GB / 850 500GB Samsung Evo /  | CASE: 570X | Display: Dell u2414h  | KEYBOARD: Corsair K70 | MOUSE: Corsair M65

I thought so yeah, I might do it then, it'll be less hassle than getting an SSD and cheaper. . . Thanks
