I have this exact same laptop at home and I ended up choosing 32 GBs after looking it up on dell’s website. I copied and pasted their info below. Basically, if you’re only going to run a single game, maybe you’ll be better with the 2666 MHz. If you’re into streaming like I am and want to run teamspeak, stream, and your game all at the same time then you should probably go with the 32gbs. Random access memory (RAM) — commonly known as memory — is the temporary storehouse for the data flowing to and from your PC's processor. All else being equal, a system with more memory can: -Deliver fast performance -Handle more open files at once -Open large files -Work with more open software programs at once -Respond faster when gaming Memory speeds are measured in megahertz (MHz). One hertz equals one action per second. A megahertz equals 1,000 actions per second. That means memory rated at 1,333MHz equals 1,333,000 actions per second. The faster the memory, the more actions can be completed in a short span of time, and the greater the system’s multitasking capabilities. A system containing 6GB of 1,600MHz memory can perform better than an identically configured system with 6GB of 1,333MHz memory.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.To be honest , I have a 16Gb gaming laptop and this 32gb Alienware and games run at the same speed and FPS , if anything the graphics card is good for gaming performance, there are not any PC games which require 32 Gb of RAM that I know of. I still highly recommend this laptop, it is awesome.
