For CS:GO, you wanna have at least 8GB of RAM. That's the sweet spot for not just CS:GO, but pretty much most games these days. Helps everything run smooth like butter. But hey, if you're feeling fancy and wanna future-proof a bit or dabble in other more demanding games, bumping that up to 16GB won't hurt.

4GB of RAM for CS:GO? Nope, that's a myth. Tried it, and it was a slideshow. 8GB is where it's at.

Honestly, 8GB of RAM is fine for CS:GO, but everyone talking about needing 16GB is kinda overkill unless you're doing heavy multitasking or playing more intensive games. CS:GO runs great on 8GB.

8GB is the minimum you need for a smooth experience in CS:GO. Anything less and you might find yourself lagging behind, literally. But if you're like me and have a million tabs open while playing, 16GB might be the way to go to keep everything running smoothly.
