Would recommend 8GB but what games do you plan on playing? 

Spoiler

Corsair 400C- Intel i7 6700- Gigabyte Gaming 6- GTX 1080 Founders Ed. - Intel 530 120GB + 2xWD 1TB + Adata 610 256GB- 16GB 2400MHz G.Skill- Evga G2 650 PSU- Corsair H110- ASUS PB278Q- Dell u2412m- Logitech G710+ - Logitech g700 - Sennheiser PC350 SE/598se


Is it just me or is Grammar slowly becoming extinct on LTT?

If you render stuff, you really shouldn't even be asking how much ram you need. That's something you would kinda know. I mean, I blow through 8GB of ram easy if I'm doing something and there are members on LTT that blow threw 16GB like it's nothing. 4GB of ram today is like having 512mb a few years ago..it's nowhere near enough for work loads that's not a spreadsheet.

Well 4GB would the minimum. If you can go for 8GB.

bf4,tf2,NBA 2k14,crysis 3.

 

For just BF4 6gigs would be minimum to make it playable. 8gigs for now, another 8 if you feel needing it. Keep eye on ram usage while under load. That should give you some idea how much you need it.
