Hey whats up, I was just wondering about ram and how much makes a good differance. I currently have Corsair 16gb 3000 speed ram installed in my rig, with an i7 8700k. How much ram would make my CPU happy per say? haha. I was thinking about installing more ram and ending up with 32gb. I mostly game so keep that in mind. Thanks for y'alls input on the matter.

16GB is perfectly fine unless you are using all of it up.

16 GB should be plenty for gaming. IMO RAM is so expensive right now unless you can really use that extra memory the money could be better spent on more games.
