RAM for ArcPro

[ecco]

If any of you out there work with GIS software, I'd love to hear your thoughts on how much ram is appropriate for starters. I'm a student that will be using ArcPro. My current setup includes a Ryzen 5600 with 16 gigs of ram; I'm considering upgrading to 32gb, but only if it will give a noticeable uplift. I won't be doing anything crazy but I will be dabbling in some LiDAR datasets

Look at your RAM usage in task manager performance (CTRL SHIFT ESC)
If you are using 16GB+ and are seeing a bit of disk activity while you work then more RAM could be a huge improvement.
But if not then it will make no difference.
