I searched for your CPU and found it includes an integrated graphics unit that can handle up to 64GB of memory. This suggests it probably uses part of the system RAM. Look into your BIOS settings for iGPU configuration and verify if around 4GB has been assigned, then consider lowering it if possible.

I did the work, but my computer seems to have 36GB of RAM while I only installed 32GB sticks. Not sure what’s adding the extra space.

Probably Paging Files. This is a portion of disk the system treats as RAM. Some older applications explicitly use Paging Files sometimes it's used as an overflow when you're low on RAM. You can adjust your Paging Files or disable them entirely. I can't say I've noticed any real performance improvement from doing so though.

Thanks a lot for your support! You're doing great. Let's check a few things in Bios to see if we can resolve everything.

I don’t own your motherboard, so locating the iGPU VRAM configuration will likely require some searching. I discovered a note that could help point you in the right path—check there for instructions on adjusting the memory allocated to the built-in graphics processor, whether it’s 2GB or 4GB.
