RAM Prices

[996GT2]

Alright, with the recent drops in RAM prices (8GB kits can be had for $45-55 now), is it worth upgrading to 16GB of RAM just because it's so cheap? I do a lot of Photoshop work, so I guess more can't hurt, right?

It can't hurt.

I just did this last week, from 8GB to 16GB because of a Newegg Shell Shocker deal - even though I don't really need that much at the moment. I had a flashback to years ago when I got screwed by a RAM price increase. There have been years where it's just insanely expensive. Though I see there's a new thread in this forum predicting further price cuts, so maybe I jumped the gun.
