Exactly. A decade ago, I put 64GB of RAM in a PC and my friend asked me why I needed that much and I replied "so I can say I have 64GB RAM".

The only time usage was "high" was when I created a VM with 48GB RAM just for kicks.

It was useless. But I could say I had 64GB RAM.

My work computer with Widnows, Outlook, few tabs open and Excel already craps put with 16 GB

If you hae a private computer, why wpuld you even bug something with 16GB in 2025? My 10 year old laptop had that much.

Im looking for a new laptop and Im looking at a 128GB setup - so those 200 chrome tabs can eat it, I have space to run other stuff, like those horrible electron chat apps + a game

		I have 64GB in my current machine and, TBH, it's more than enough. But if I were to upgrade, I'd still get at least 128GB. Nobody's gonna be impressed with 64GB anymore. I don't need that in my life...
