I wanted to buy a laptop with ssd hard drive and intel i7 processor. Now I wonder if I need 8gb Ram or rather 16gb. I briefly describe what I want to do with the laptop:
Ableton (and other DAWs) up to 20 tracks and up to 15 plugins
Minecraft
Office work
Maybe someone knows and can judge how many gigabytes would be useful, preferably from their own experience
Maybe someone has such a laptop and can give me a buy recommendation.
So with Ableton, the sound is usually the problem, not the memory. I would simply recommend the 16 for you anyway, then you are on the safe side. 8 are basically just a little bit. In any case, you have to make sure that you have an audio interface or a very good sound card.
More is always better but if you want to save money 8gb are enough, you can still upgrade later
Rather 16GB Both Ableton and MC (Mods)
Thanks, have a sound interface
