Constantly consuming over 8Gb of RAM, even when nothing is running. Anyone have an idea about this? Usage is around 85% during regular tasks—not just gaming.

No, I don't use Firefox. I haven't turned off my computer.

I've been relying on Google Chrome for a long time. Yes, I restart the computer occasionally.

Review the task manager to see which applications are running and organize them based on memory consumption.

I’ve secured every possible connection. The data there totals about 4 to 5 gigabytes.

It doesn't matter. The system often stores things in RAM and loads DLLs to speed up apps. If you really need memory, they'll release space. As long as you stay within your available RAM, that's fine. Don't stress about it.

I have two systems each with 16 GB of RAM, and I've never noticed them handling that much usage before.

It seems the game isn't running smoothly even though my CPU and GPU are working well.
