How much memory or RAM should my computer have?

The answer depends on what operating system and programs you run on the computer and how many programs run at the same time.
We recommend looking at the system requirements for the programs or games you run on your computer, and double that number. However, below is our recommendation for the amount of memory today's (2022) computers should have.
Minimum: 4 GB
Recommended: 8 GB
Excellent: 16 GB or more.
If you're using an older computer, with an older version of an operating system, the minimum memory requirements are lower.
For example, users still running Microsoft Windows XP can get away with 128 MB of memory since its requirements are only 64 MB.
It's important to know that the 32-bit versions of any Microsoft Windows operating system can only detect up to 4 GB of total system memory.
Upgrading to a 64-bit processor and a 64-bit version of Windows increases your memory requirements, but it also allows your computer to recognize more memory.
