Diablo 4 beta was totally 32GB i literally bought a ram kit from 16gb to 32gb after that experience. Cyberpunk 2077 needs over 16gb, and just that if you like to multitask, watch some YouTube or twitch with discord sharing screen and gaming with your friends during these games will need 32gb to avoid over using page file on 16gb. Maybe 24gb is enough with ddr5 kits if your lighter on multitask or don't play the newer unoptimized games.

I play modded cyberpunk and I've never had an issue on 16gb. and I am also a multitasker with multiple windows and other things open and tabbing between them while gaming.
