RAM actually does factor into rendering, contra common claims: More RAM means you can increase your bucket size and get faster renders.
Audio processing is very intensive, and if you use a lot of plugins, can bog you down fast.
RAM has come down so much in price, I don't really see why you would cheap out on it if you can afford it. 16 GB of DDR3 RAM can now be had for around $150. So even if it's overkill, why not guarantee that's not gonna be the bottleneck for a while?
