    33% Ram Usage While Idle

    I've been monitoring my computer's activity lately and this just came to my attention. While my computer is idle, 33% of my computer's ram is in usage. I have 16gb of ram and I'm just curious if this is normal to have 5.2gb of ram being used while idle.
    If it is not normal, what can I do to lower the amount of ram used while idle? If it is normal, what is causing this ram usage?

    What speed improvement can I expect increasing from 8GB of RAM to 16GB on a Fierce APOLLO Quadcore Desktop Gaming PC, Athlon X4 860K 4.0GHz, GTX 750 Ti 2GB

    Windows 10 High Memory(RAM) utilization at idle issue

    Recently I'm finding out that there is very high ram utilization after keeping the windows on for a long time. I have 16GB of RAM and still some times I get error message about low memory(RAM) remaining. That is all 16GB RAM in use even if my computer
    is sitting idle. This is big of an issue which is need to be sorted out fast,as it is affecting performance in other applications.
