I know you open lots of tabs sometimes. Can you get by with 8GB memory or is 16GB much more needed? My new computer only has 8 -—my old one had 16GB.

I use Chrome and Brave and use session buddy to quickly close out tabs when I get 200 tabs or so.

You should have 16GB and a SSD. For me with 32GB right now with 5 browsers and around 600 tabs open (leaving s lot on the "table" that I want handy) and 2 Bible programs documents on 2 word pros and a email client and other programs, memory usage is 45% but it grows. Restarting a browser restores RAM so I need to do so sometimes, since I rarely shutdown the PC, just put it to sleep.
