Advice on £3k+VAT Audio Production/Gaming Rig

Interesting thought, however I hardly use my 8GB as it is. This is because I use a lot of synths and effects. These plugins do need a lot of processing power but hardly use any memory.
On the other hand for someone who would use samples frequently (I'm talking huge, 500 GB libraries) would need a lot of memory, but even then I think 16GB would suffice. And if it is not, it is always easy to add a few memory modules along the way.

Yeah 16GB is fine for now

what DAW are you using?

Least intel platform is easier to add ram to and large amount of it due to stronger IMC

I use Reaper and Ableton Live but the latter is mainly used on my Macbook Pro for live usage. Anything studio-wise is done in Reaper almost exclusively.
