4GB is like baseline standard now.

6-8GB is adequate for high-end.

Beyond 8 is just only useful if you're the kind of person that needs that much.

Adding more RAM only helps if you have a worse processor. I recommend a Pentium 4 (Extreme Edition).

Beyond 8 is just only useful if you're the kind of person that needs that much.

Does 10 rams go to hold as more to contain for to fit my needs?

All anyone ever would need would be 8 for now.
4 holds up just fine today.

I could use 16GB of ram right about now. I do a lot of VMing.
