I have 8GB of RAM on my laptop. I now have about 4 GB of space. Do games still require 8 GB?
How do you mean exactly? You only have 4GB RAM usage left over from the system or what?
So my laptop has a memory of 8gb. There are now 4 left
Hi
Of course it works.
You can also look for your laptop here and buy larger rams that match.
PS: You have most likely installed 2 times 4 GB of RAM.

8GB is not much by today's standards, the running programs and the system may well take up 4 GB of it.
Your game will hardly work, if at all it will only jerky.
The operating system takes care of the memory management.
If more RAM is required than is (currently) free, the data of "dormant" programs are temporarily moved to the swap file.
Otherwise the RAM reported as "free" is always used as a cache with temporary data.
So, no fear! That will work!
Thanks, where can I see that I have 2 times 4GB? I heard that it somehow runs faster
Hi
Faster, well, they're definitely cheaper. Also believe that your laptop won't get any faster, but it will run smoother.
When copying files I noticed that it quickly writes 10GB in the working memory with 500MB per sec.
By the way, my Acer has soldered 4 GB and 4 GB to swap. Have 4 + 16 GB.
Oh yes, unscrew the small lid at the bottom and look inside.
