For gaming, 16gb should be enough
Ram won't affect the gaming performance (or maybe tiny effect on it only, you won't feel the significant change too even you change to 32 or 64gb)

if you play alot of Anno 1800 or its variants of SIM games, then you will need alot of RAM because those game tends to use up alot of RAM.

even if you upgrade to 32GB of RAM, it will use up to 28GB-30GB of RAM too

the more buildings and people in your town, the more RAM it consumes.

They will need more CPU usage instead of ram

Yeah I really like SIM games.  rclxm9.gif
My CPU only uses about 46~50^% while playing according to MSIBurner. GPU as well around 50%
Only thing that i notice is the RAM usage. Am using Ryzen 5 2600, RTX2060.

Perhaps you can try to upgrade, but I know anno 1800 like to utilize the ram as reserve, thus you will see almost 100% of ram utilization
This could be some kind of bug in the game, and they still never fix it yet
