I have an HP 15-da0017nx with 8gb of ram, the problem is that 50% (4.1 Gb) of the ram is used at idle and it doesn't change at all, games are stuttering and there's a lot of frame drops
I also noticed that there is shared memory for the GPU so I think this might be the problem

Yes, They are dedicated memory, so it will decrease your RAM.

To make sure, download the GPU-Z, and check the "Memory Size".
