--IMPORTANT-- Game optimization (specifically RAM)

So, I saw the steam page for requirements and whatnot, and here's what i saw:

minimal:
2.0 Ghz CPU (ok)
4GB RAM (reasonable)
GPU: just a voodoo so idc

Heres what worries me, though:
Reccomended:
3.0 Ghz (kinda a standard, so ok)
8GB RAM (wat)
GPU still a voodoo

The RAM is off the charts, it what im trying to say.
I understand as games get more complicated, the needs for it rise, but this is just insane.
Ya know what else uses 8 gigs of ram?

Crysis
Cod: WW2
No man's sky

E X C U S E M E , W T F

We gotta work on this, as this is crazy.

the games does not actually need 8 gigs, it probably uses about 2 or even less. the 8gigs is just some extra to not push the system. windows, discord, browsers, spotify and wherever else you have in the backround is using ram and in total might use 1-3 gigs. combined with the game it might reach above 4 which will cause slowdowns and crashes.
