like the guy said here ''this game uses almost 6GB of ram so as mentioned background apps will impact the performance of 8GB of ram quite a bit.really you need 16GB in todays gaming''
ya, these crap poorly optimized games that released for quick sale to the needy markets that they mite fix later if at all and there you go ..

so ya, I guess if poorly optimized software you would run in to this and need lot of memory to support there junk
or like chrome can as well

then you never know if them steam, origin , uplay clients are buffering your pre info and data for upload ..lol...
you see here like ffxv is not letting the memory refresh and can be forced to do so and things get right ? poorly optimized software.

I like this statement ''The memory use measurements yield expected results: nothing really changes, regardless of whether you have an AMD or Nvidia card installed. With nearly 7GB tied up, Square Enix's 8GB minimum specification makes sense'
I guess so
one thing I can comment on is if using high resolution / 4k adds to this but so far if you invest in a 2x8gb kit you should be covered even with these issues
I don't recall if windows 10 has any memory limits on the releases like home pro ect.... most time windows home will only take up to / utilize 16 gb max .
you see with 10 how this is directly answered [what ever it decides whats best for you it seems ]

I mean in the comments you put 16 gb in and only 8 is useable ?? what the heck is using the other 8 ? is 10 that bloated it needs 8 gb to run
with all this crap i got open and running this win- 7 64 is at 2.22gb used of the 16 installed ? windows 10 what a joke I guess what you get from going from a OS to a service . never a straight answere with any of it , so trustworthy
all I can say is go with a 16gb kit and be done with it
