hey just wondering if this is because i dont have enough ram or some other problem.
i was alerted to this as when i am playing games i drop to below 10 frames sometimes!!
so i look at task manager and msi afterburner and it shows my cpu is not even abouse 50% gpu pretty high at like 70-80% but ram at like 97% is this my ram's capacity or someother problem? thanks
specs:
gtx 970 msi gming
i5 6600k (stock speed)
8gb corsair vengence
msi m5 z170a
ssd and 2 hard drives (1 of them is realy crappy) but i dont instal games on them
***update*** did a restart and usage is back to 40%idle
