Unless you're running like 6 screens it's overkill yeah.
I only have two screens. I told my brother if he drives here and adds a new hard drive for me he can have one of the cards. guess the 400 mile drive isn't worth it.
I got them in hopes video would encode faster, But it doesn't.
Nice, I rock 4GB on two slots right now, but my machine maxes out at 32GB so I'm probably gonna buy the $150 upgrade with Crucial.com soon. May as well max it out.

It will do it faster if you can link them.

You are talking about ram, not video card memory?
I have 16 gigs ram. Can buy another 16 but no way i will need it anytime soon.

I read that some videocards can help a lot when it comes to encoding. Now clue how and which ones though.
what is some up limit in future? how much will be good for decade?
If i understand your question right...
Atm 1 gig video memory is plenty unless you want to play BF3 on 3 screens.
16 gig ram is more than enough unless you run a professional sound studio and use 50 huge ass plugins.
I doubt that anything in the next 1 to 3 years will need more juice. For the average user.
But ofcourse in the (near future) things will change.
10 years from now we joke about back in the day when we only needed 4 gigs of ram to play a game.
5-10 years from now a computer will have 256 gigs ram by default. A video card 64.
Not video memory related but since we're posting system shit, I'm now rocking 8gb ram on my Windows 7 32 bit laptop.
I'm gonna have to dissapoint you.
I didn't know this either a while ago when i was running Windows 32 bit.
Windows 32 bit can not use more than 4 gigs.

I bought a 200 euros AMD FX-8350 Eight-Core this week. I know it got shit reviews but damn, it's fast.
I use it for my sound studio computer because the software i use (Sonar) takes full advantage of 8 cores.
When i compare it to my work computer which sports a 500 euro i7-3930K i don't notice any difference. I'm sure when it comes to encoding and stuff the intel chip will be way fast but for daily use it's just as fast.
