PC budgeting: Increase RAM from 16 to 32, OR get a 2nd NVME exclusively for Sierra?

Replacing my 6 year old computer. I have read a bunch of threads on the Support Board about configurations. I will get a fast CPU with a bunch of cores, and at least 16GB of RAM and a NVME drive.

If I have a little more room in the budget, should I spend it on doubling the RAM, or getting a 2nd NVME drive exclusively for Sierra? If you recommend the drive option, is 250GB enough or should I go for the 500GB?

2nd question... I am assuming a graphics card with 2-4 GB of memory is plenty, correct?

Yes. This is a good idea.

Being the data is compressed, 250 GB should be fine.

The graphics card sounds fine.
