I am looking to play the new US release of Lost Ark, World of Warcraft, and have a pc that will last me awhile in terms of future games.

32gb of ram.. is probably enough for everyone unless they play Star Citizen. Its actually way more than most people actually need. Its overkill for 90% of games now and probably for a few years to come. Most people still only have 16gb, and very few things need more.

Windows doesn't even grow that much with 32gb, most days I only use 7gb of ram at desktop... and still have 24gb available and 19gb free, sitting there wasting electricity.

Free ram doesn't help anyone. it doesn't make PC faster, it is just there until you need it... maybe.

If you, for some reason wanted more ram, I would buy it now as its much easier to get sticks that are sold together to work together, you can start getting weird errors otherwise.
