Question A Question About Memory

[cihank1]

I have 2 x 8 GB memory in my PC. When I open Windows 10 task manager -> Performance tab -> Memory, it says "Memory 16.0 GB." But just under that it says, "Memory usage 15.9 GB." Why doesn't it say 16.0 GB too? Where is that 0.1 GB?

Some of the RAM is reserved for hardware when Windows loads. The amount depends on hardware and components.

I think that 15.9 is the total available out of the 16384MB pysical RAM installed.
