Hey guys, so I've been wondering whether to upgrade from 16 gb ram to 24 gb ram to stream rainbow six siege. It's been crashing recently while I stream (even after a restart or waiting for the system to cool down) and I think RAM SHOULD help.... But I'm not 100 percent sure and don't want to make a useless investment.

My specs are in the picture.

Thank you in advance!

No it probably wouldnt help. IF you go to task manager you can see if your CPU is running to the max, which it probably is.

Also you only have 2 dimms

You know that you can see how much ram you're using by opening task manager, right?

If you're not using 100% of your ram then adding more will make 0 difference.
