Battlefield 1 only using less than 4GB of RAM

[majed88]

I have 32GB of RAM on my 64-bit system, but the game (running 64-bit version) is only using 3.5GB of RAM, anyone having the same issue?

I think its normal if singleplayer

I'm playing multiplayer online!

Maybe the 3.5Gb is fir the VRAM

No, that's for the game itself in the Task Manager

 

[Radar_ak]

Use msi afterburn software and track the usage of ram

I got 16GB on my system and I see usage of 8GB+
Having said that, do you actually experience any slow downs or any other issues?

 

[ayushde]

Well 3.5 GB Ram usage just for the game is not that less. And that see any reason to get worried unless you are experiencing any in game issues.

Yes, FPS dropdowns during the game.

Yes there's in game issues, FPS dropdowns during the game. Other people are reporting a RAM usage of 10+

Are you sure the issues you are experiencing are because of the game not utilising enough ram? The problem could be anything. What are your specifications? Is your GPU capable enough of playing at the settings/resolution you play at? Is your CPU(or any thread) loaded 100% while your GPU underutilised? Are you running the latest drivers? Do you have ample amount of VRAM? Are your components properly cooled?

Yup, I'm sure of all that. My system is water-cooled and I've checked everything including the drivers. Moreover, I keep getting the same issue (FPS dropdowns) regardless of the game settings (resolution)

Can you give some system specs?

download hwinfo32,
install and open it=click run,
close the top window which is the system summary,
at the left top click "save report",
at the bottom of the next window check "short text report",
after that you'll see what's in the pc,
copy by clicking "copy to clipboard" and rightclick+paste in your next respons

Hmmm don't see anything wrong there. Very nice build still.😀

Did you reinstalled the game? Haven't played it very much and don't know if there's a setting for it,but maybe look if there's a limit on memory used set somewhere.

I tried searching for a setting but I couldn't find one. Lemme reinstall the game and get back to you!

Didn't think there was,but you just never know. I really don't get into settings like that much.,i'm too lazy,just want to play.:lol:

Lemme reinstall the game and get back to you!

Okay.

Okay.

I hear you, I just want to play too lol. I gave it a try and reinstalled the game. Still the same problem 🙁

 

[Vic 40]

Again never looked for it,but if the game has a 32bit version,as BF4 has, can you try running that? See what that gives.

I couldn't get it to run on 32-bit mode :/

 

[MikeLevin]

That's definitely good, if you are in single player mode. Do you experience any problems while playing?

 

[Vic 40]

Played the game myself abit to confirm,it seems on my system it also only used about 3.5gb of ram,total system use maxed out at ~7gb.So seems pretty normal to me.
Most when talking about ram usage they look at whole system use,not just game use and i think they might have more background apps running,maybe even recording ....

Yup FPS dropdowns

Let's hope that's the case cause I'm giving up on the RAM utilization! and more importantly, let's hope AMD modifies their drivers for the game cause the FPS dropdowns are kinda annoying when I'm playing in crossfire mod.

What's your system configuration? Can you run the same program you told me about and post your configuration? I'm just curious 😀

Tried to disable crossfire and see what that gives? At least to see if FPS will be stable then.

Mouse cursor=>avatar.😀 I use "system1" to play it.
