I feel like 32GB RAM will become the norm one day. The OP may no longer need the question answered, but I'm sure others may be curious. Reflecting on this old thread, now approximately 5 years into the future, I can already see 16GB becoming a new minimum for some people, especially those who game or use multiple VMs like Mothered.

In other words, why not? It doesn't cost too much nowadays if you're building a desktop.
