Similar here, 3700X with 32GB RAM, but I think there is no difference to 16GB doing tests. It always depends which modules you use with darktable. I think the RAM of the graphics adapter is a _lot_ more important. I use a GeForce GTX 1660 (no TI!). There is no noticeable advantage with the TI. If you want it faster you have to spend a _lot_ more money, as already mentioned more RAM of the graphics adapter reduces tiling and that saves a lot more time than a faster GPU. We had this discussion a while ago doing tests with cli, my pc was a lot faster because it did not use tiling. So if you do not very complex tasks with DT, the 1660 is the sweet point IMHO.
