It would not be bad to have 128 GB of working memory for games ...
Working memory is rarely a bottleneck for gaming, but the old rule is still valid today: more is always better; or - from more head does not hurt. Rarely that some game uses more than 8 GB of RAM, but it would not be bad idea if you were secured for the future, say with 128 GB of RAM - on one stick.
From today, in theory, you can have it. Specifically, Crucial has launched its DDR-4-2666 LRDIMM stick that delivers a massive 128 GB of RAM. For gaming purposes, something like this does not exist but you have to combine several stick to get those 128GB of memory. Of course, Crucial's powerful stick is neither intended for gaming but for servers that run demanding applications like VMWare VDI, Oracle, Azure and similar.
However, if for some reason you have a need to play on such a computer, it is useful to know that you can pair this memory with Intel Xeon processors and AMD Epyc platforms. The price is a real little thing - four thousand dollars per stick.
