    HOW DO I STOP IT?! This is after a fresh install! It's lagging!

    Okay, so Android Studio was using 44%, but that is to be expected. Why is Windows allowing itself to use so much RAM that it starts lagging?! This was not a problem before the fresh install.

    Chrome was using 8%. Edge was using 22%.

    That leave no apps open. So the system is using 26%. Perhaps the problem is Edge. I thought I'd try it out after the fresh install. Perhaps a bad idea.

    Windows shows 8GB RAM installed but 4GB RAM is usable

    Hi There,

    I've just upgraded my pc from 4GB RAM to 8GB RAM. Windows seems to have detected this upgrade but why does it show as only 4GB RAM available. The following is what I have tried so far with no luck:

    • I have tried the msconfig method on ensuring maximum memory is not checked.
    • physically removed the new RAM and reinstalled it
    Any thoughts/suggestions on how i can resolve this matter?

    Thanks

    Do I really need 8gb RAM?

    RAM Speed is more important when it comes to APU's. 1600mhz is standard, 1866mhz is a decent step up, most of us ignore 1333mhz. Timings are more important than speed to me. Id rather have CL9 1600mhz than CL11 2400mhz
