I need that RAM. Current using 16gb ram and using 60-75% with my normal day-to-day development tasks. I also have an i5 and GTX960 4gb. Pretty fast machine but definitely not future proof.
I also have a 2012 macbook pro retina that im looking to replace with a high end dell laptop most likely.
Surprisingly virtualization doesn't eat up most of my ram its mostly all the desktop apps that are chromium based now. My team uses slack, I use shift for emails (switching to Mailspring helped ram usage a lot), keybase, etc.
Fortunately, RAM price is at an all-time low again. If you're in the US, you can pay about $130 for a 32GB dual channel kit.
There's a tech youtuber that I follow and he just posted a selection of great RAM kits on NewEgg. This is his affiliate link, so if you don't feel comfortable about it, feel free to do the search yourself - pcdeal.tv/2IJHCYB

What is it does it eats your RAM up? The IDE? Virtualization?
I just went with 64 so I don't have to upgrade in a few years

I would be super happy with 32gb ram!
