Hey everyone! I recently assembled my PC and was curious about what I'm experiencing. Initially, RAM usage was manageable, but over time it has increased significantly during idle periods. When the system powers on, it quickly utilizes nearly 7GB of RAM. I've checked forums but haven't found a fix yet. I've updated all drivers and the BIOS, and Windows is also current. I attached a screenshot from Task Manager to possibly assist in diagnosing the problem. My startup apps are limited to a few: iCUE, NZXT CAM, Delayed Launcher, Intel Graphics Command Center, Startup Task, RAM Cache, Realtek HD audio, Universal Service, Windows Security Notification, and some graphics drivers. My PC specs include an Intel 10th Gen i7-10700K processor, Windows 10 64-bit Professional, overclocked to 5.1GHz with XMP enabled, Corsair Dom Plat 32GB RAM (which consumes a lot of RAM), NZXT Kraken Z73 AIO cooler, and several other components like the ASUS Maximus Hero XII WiFi Z490, Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500GB NVMe M.2, and more.

I've attempted to stop NZXT CAM and iCUE, but the AIO screen freezes when NZXT CAM is closed. iCUE provided some relief, yet MsMpEng continues to display "Access Denied" when I try to terminate the process.
