16 gig is overkill. 8gig ddr3 or ddr4 is all you really need. 6gigs of GGDR5 ram if you can get it on your GPU is much prefered over the 3gig models.

I call BS. I am sitting at 6.8G used right now and I have Outlook and 4 tabs in chrome open. Granted this is a work PC i5 but still. My Laptop does about the same, both have 16GB.  16GB is minimum these days. 8GB is budget pc territory and no gaming.
