Meanwhile I have 16 GBs, and I feel that I should update to 32...

You don't think you'll ever really use all 32GB at the same time until you're running a virtual machine or two and open task manager to see that you're consistently using over 82% of your RAM, which happened to me today.

Did it work? I struggle with 32 sometimes, but I am blaming it on the software

Y'all are in the double digits? I've only got 8 and I'm doing fine

Compute intensive stuff usually demands those levels of RAM. I know for gaming the recommendation nowadays is 16GB while 8GB are considered "works for now". There are some games though that still benefit from more RAM (I upgraded to 32GB on my old PC for a Beta of a Sim game as it maxed out my 16GB to the point of lagging my PC)
