If the applications you use on a daily basis don't cause your OS to alert you on lack of memory, then you're fine. If the apps trigger an alert suggesting that you're running low on memory(and you're certain you're not suffering from a memory leak, in Windows 10) then you're going to need more ram. Ideally you can have 16GB of ram but 8GB is the norm these days.
