6gb should be enough /2gb for the system

more important is a smart loading management and streaming.
loading 7gb would need more than 5 minutes:
once fully loaded the advantage should be:no more loading times while entering buildings like in lego city

Likely 7GB will completely eliminate load times. With so much RAM available, 3GB can be used for the current area, and the rest dedicated to storing nearby area information...ie, loading while playing

This would also mean that PS4 is very loud as the drive would constantly stream data to RAM and given that even 6x reading speed is quite slow I believe it makes more sense to "install" games to hdd.

We'll see what Sony will exactly do.
