8 is too small. You load up a browser and a few tabs these days and you’re already almost full. Lots of webapps these days chew 400MB easy. Some I load use 1.1GB. For a single tab.
Our office is filled with these base model Macbook Pros, and PCs with 8 gigs of ram. It’s plenty.
It’s all in your use case. If you work for an office where your job requires you to do word processing and look at a single web page then yes it is. I usually make my browser cry with the amount of tabs I have. I’m frequently switching between different projects and it’s not as simple as just closing and reopening tabs. Not to mention the other applications I use…
Sure, for you and I 8 gigs of ram isn’t enough. I have 32 gigs of ram and an eGPU for my mac Mini and I make that i5 cry.
But you and I aren’t normal people. We’re nowhere close.
Memes aside, stop using chrome lawl
I don’t use Chrome. It’s just the way I work and research. Lots of tabs. I also have data from hundreds of machines where average ram usage is definitely around or above 8 GB.
