Now is 4GB + 4GB for windows 8.1 I am using DELL Inspirion 7447 14inch FHD with 4GB GEFORCE GTX580M My office work exceeds 8GB (approximately 10GB) when running some test suite. For photoshop + opening multiple tabs in browser (60~100+) + doing other work in background could also exceed that much too. If you do not want to be bothered by RAM issues, grab a 4 slot RAM and purchase max RAM size (8GB x 4 = 32GB). Just an idea though if you have the budget |
