A look at how much RAM you might need as a Linux gamer

Did you include "Buffers and cache" size for your calculation of total RAM used? For example for War Thunder I get around 4.5GB used (while the game is minimised) and additional 5.5GB used for cache. This extra memory is also important from the point of view of performance.
