Yikes, a 32GB RAM limit seems a bit low in 2024, even for a laptop.
A gigabyte of Ram should do the trick
8GB of ram is already not enough now.
Demonstrably not for me, and many others I know who have 32/64GB RAM
Well I have 16gb of RAM so it doesn't effect me.
64 bits ram? That's tiny ;)
You probably won't need as much RAM as you think.
What if you have around 400GB of RAM? Would this be enough?
Do you need more than 64GB of memory?
4 GB of RAM can be a problem for some.
