For a long while Memory was one of those things that you needed a certain amount, but once you passed 4GB there really wasn't a lot to be gained apart from a huge hole in your wallet. Now as the latest smartphones can provide nearly everybody with HD video capabilities and we're all multi-tasking with a media-player running, a few tabs up in our browser, maybe a casual game, virus killer, the ever increasing amount of drivers running, the need for larger and larger capacity memory has become almost vital. If you want to convert your smartphone video into a Youtube friendly format you'll definitely need as much as possible, and with this in mind we're taking a look at a whopping 16GB kit from G.Skill. The switch from 2GB density sticks to 4GB has meant that such a mammoth number is now a realistic proposition. Coming in at about £130 it's surprisingly good value too. I remember paying £70 for a 512KB expansion. Tempora mutantur.
