as you can see in the title, is 16gb of memory enough for GAMING AND EDITING or should I upgrade to 32gb just to be sure???? (pls. note that I will run my ram sticks in quad channel)
 
Solution
Depends entirely on the software you wanna use.

For editing using Premiere, you really can't give it to much, but 16GB is good and it will work with 8GB... but more is better.

For gaming, 8GB is generally considered enough (though inevitable some titles will show benefit from extra)
