If you ever play greedy games which require a lot of resources and computation on the side of the processor, it is the RAM that will take over and allow the processor to have all the files at hand.

A high amount of RAM memory will therefore be essential to have high performance on your Oppo K3. That said, it's a bit like everything, after a certain volume your processor will not be powerful enough to use it and you will therefore have unused memory. It will therefore be necessary to find the right compromise between processor power and the amount of RAM. This year, the most powerful phones have 8 to 10 GB of RAM which is huge!
