Perhaps to put some more stuff in this thread: you can easily fill up ram with stuff, but it depends on what you want to do. E.g. the demo scene where you have a file size limit for your demo, the groups generate the data before the actual demo starts by calculation. This can easily mean generating gigabytes of data stored in ram. As with games: games also generate a lot of data and if there is more ram it would be used by devs. They just wouldn't have to matter that much how to squeeze all the stuff into given ram.
