Do you really believe that you need 64GB of RAM in your personal computer? Did you know that 16 GB so much ultra fast modern RAM in a laptop that most people even with many browser tabs going, games running, editing video, are unable to max out their ram. Now don't get me wrong, if your editing 4K videos all the time for work & income, if you're a game developer with Huge File sizes, if you're doing artificial intelligence locally LLM hosting on your hardware, warming up your fingers & toes with a hot machine blowing out hot air, even liquid cooled setups dump heat from the radiator, what I mean is that you can spend your money on a better GPU & CPU, a much better screen, or just get a NEW gaming laptop with everything upgraded
Unless your doing heavy memory tasks, 16GB plenty of main memory, if you must throw down, 32GB sufficient, but if you need max memory, 64GB ok, their are laptops with 128GB of RAM, some with 256GB of RAM, 4TB SSD, speaking of which, get a better SSD with your money.
With a faster SSD, faster CPU & more powerful GPU, your going to notice more performance per dollar spent. Your machine will boot up faster, operate smoothly, perform well with great frame rates while gaming, yes get a gaming laptop, even if you're a business user, the extra performance is always nice when you want to do a little impromptu gaming, noting that gaming has become the most valuable entertainment industry in the world!
Old computer wisdom said the more RAM the better, but this rarely turns out to be true, when you consider total system cost & where to spend the money for better performance. Its true that modern browsers are memory hogs compared to just the recent past, but even with many YouTube tabs going, music Lo-Fi in background, stores & many shows do this, then main content you listen to in order to learn something, possibly social media in other tabs more than one most likely, or me a Blog going while STEM running in the background.
Yet my ancient ASUS F17 Gaming Laptop never slows down. I use it a lot daily & even after a few years, I took it apart to clean it inside, not a speck of dust. Astonished I got my fiberoptic macro camera going to inspect it microscopic & found a tiny amount of dust, but not in the heat sinks or fans, just odd corners and edges inside where dust got pushed & had no way out, so I used a 500w blower fan corded computer duster thing from Amazon, I got that instead of that air in a can because its actually not air, its a low boiling point solvent mix that is very unhealthy to breathe, airless dusters are known to cause cardiovascular damage when users inhale the resulting VOC's released as pressurized gas for dusting computer parts, & the makers of this are all about the money, they don't care if it hurts the user.
Neither did Merck when they released VIOXX knowing 5 years ahead of time that it would cause the premature death of tens of thousands of people by mitral heart valve erosion, which after 83,000 some deaths of VIOXX poisoning side effects, forced pressured FDA to withdraw VIOXX from the market, building on a long cringy sick history of Big Pharam pushing oxycodone & hydrocodone creating an opioid crisis, noting multi billion dollar settlement payers of Purdue Pharmaceuticals over their unethical distributor training where they taught opioid sales reps to tell doctors to give free samples for any condition where any kind of pain was noted, & not mention any side effects, like tolerance building, skin itching, constipation, increasing pain sensation if discontinuation, extreme addiction, ultimately setting up demand for Fentanyl which has now killed more than 100,000 young people in America, thanks China & Mexico, where most of the US Fentanyl traffic originates.
