It depends on quite a few things, like the resolution you're gaming at, the kind of games you play and how old or new those games are, to name a few. Nowadays, 16GB seems to be the sweet spot, but some new games are shown using more than that.

Please note that the tests were done using max setting possible and at 1440p. Running at 1080p and with less than max setting will reduce the amount of RAM needed.
Please excuse my bad English.
