How much RAM is "too much"?

I think 4GB are enough for most of the people. Passing over that is just wasting money.

Depends on the user I think for the acarge user 8 gb is enough to last them the next 4 or 5 years

Depending on your needs 2-3 GB is enough. If you do anything with music creation you should have at least 3-4 GB of ram. It's important to know that you cant have more that 4 GB in a 32-bit system. If you're using a 64-bit OS you can have basically unlimited amount of ram (about 16 billion)

In my system, I have 1GB DDR Ram. I never use 900MB Ram. What I do on my system is go on the Internet, listen to music, watch movies, and program software. I am not a gamer. Windows 7 runs really fast on my system with 1GB Ram.

My Specs: 120GB hard drive 1GB DDR Ram Nvidia 5200FX 256MB Graphics Intel Pentium 4 2.50Ghz

This is going to be funny when we read this next year. Everyone is saying 4gb is plenty, 32gb is way to much. I bet 8gb will be std in laptops upgradeable to 16gb. but no 8gb RAM is sufficient now.

I have 6GB which is more then I need as I am running a 32bit Windows 7. I have it if I ever want to run another OS along side Windows 7 as I have done before.

i know of a system that supports 48gb and 2 980x xeons

finally awaswserZZZZ THERE IS NEVER ENOUGH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A byte is far too much, I video edit on 1024 KB. Hope this helps.
