And I installed Linux. And it’s awesome.

EDIT: yes, the GPU was a bit tilted. Fixed it now!

You don't really need to upgrade. But for a new pc, 32gb is advised for anything gaming.

For other things like content creation or work with the computer other than basic computing, I don't really know. It would change depending on what someone needs to so with the computer.

I haven't run into issues on my gaming rig with 16. If I was building new I'd get 32 for sure. But my old 10700k and 4090 seem to do just fine on 16. Even when running unoptimized emulation like early days with ToTK I hardly used more than 12.

I feel those days are ending soon though and will need more in the next year or so.
