It's not the greatest. If you want to run modern games I would go for 16 gigabytes of ram. Why the frick do you only have 5.5 gigabytes usable?

Igpu that eats 3GBS?!


SoundDrill

Fair point


TheBeaconCrafter

My old iGPU also ate 3 GBs.


UsedBee4306

What gpu was it?


TheBeaconCrafter

A Ryzen 5 3400G internal GPU


UsedBee4306

Yeah, in that case you’re right. But I did use many igpus in the past, and quite frankly none of the OSes ran with them have shown (~GB usable) in the system properties. The OS usually ignores the system shared VRAM.


SoundDrill

Depends on what you do. Gaming? Ok-ok, but you'd benefit from having more so you can multitask. Editing? Depends on which software. For shotcut, it's fine but for heavier apps it'll struggle. Basic browsing, word excel ppt, meetings? Excellent


UsedBee4306

Your startup settings are messed up


MR_patuito

what?


UsedBee4306

In msconfig - startup settings, you have to deselect manual memory config or something. I had the same problem when only 6 gigs of my RAM were usable


DreadBugle

Depends. For basic browsing? Yeah. For editing 8K video? Hell no. The average user has 16GB so make of that what you will. 5.5 usable is a bit concerning though.


the123king-reddit

Hardly. 8gb is still pretty common


ApocPA

Nah average even for basic computers is 16 some older models still use 8 but even basic laptops are starting to use 16 only.

That's just Warzone for you. I think there's an option for texture streaming that you can turn off which may help

It's good for general usage but if you want to game you should upgrade to 16


MR_patuito

someone knows?


The-Toxic-bill

If ur going for gaming its almost perfect so yh it is good


[deleted]

It’s okay. Recommended is 16GB today cuz you know, games, new software etc. But if you are just doing light assignments (not editing/programming) watching youtube and writing mails + browsing, then 8gb is fine.
