[SOLVED] How do I resolve the Hardware Reserved Memory

[NotoriousKing211]

Hey guys, so I have a ryzen 3 2200g with a 16gig config for memory and when I check the system info I get that 2.1gb is reserved for hardware memory...
isn't 2.1 too high, I was watching a yt video with a compact ryzen 5600g build that's only taking like 712mb of memory...
Would really appreciate any solutions to this.

You can choose how much memory is reserved for the 2200g through a setting in the BIOS. Check in your motherboard manual.

If you don't have a dedicated GPU, ten the system is using the integrated GPU.
2.1GB for that is NOT unusual, and nothing that needs to be "fixed".

Oh, I must see it then, does the A-XMP profile has anything to do with the reserved ram space?? I have a a320m-a motherboard

No, this is not connected to A-XMP. Look for "UMA Frame Buffer Size" in the Advanced section of your BIOS.
