So today I learned that RAM is actually very important for gaming. My laptop had 8GB which I thought was fine but I noticed when I was playing Forza Horizon 4 that it was running not so well, and by the looks of task manager it was RAM limiting it. So I bought a new 8GB ram stick for 16GB in total and holy hell what a difference.I'm crying over here with my 8GB ram
I went from ~50fps on medium with occasional freezing and stuttering (possibly to load the world) to a rock solid 60fps on ultra. Wish I'd done that before I'd finished most of the game, it looks absolutely phenomenal now.
Yeah it's pretty important. It's funny how as of lately everything has really focused on GPU and ram. I wonder if that will continue next gen or if it's just a side effect of current gen consoles being balanced that way.
