Hello, I've been having issues with my RAM behaving weirdly - games that should use 6-12 GBs of RAM end up using only 2-3,5 after 20 minutes of playing.
Here's a pic of how ram usage looks like 2 minutes after booting up a game
And here's how it is after 20 minutes - sorry this pic doesn't attach View: https://imgur.com/4p41zLr
It's like this in every single game i've played ever since building this PC, so it's not a memory leak that's present only in this one; Im having a lot of frame drops and stuttering in some games and i don't know if they're just unoptimized or it's related to this. Furthermore my pc tries it's hardest to keep ram usage around 50% when im not running RAM heavy programs, so using a browser while playing a not so demanding game will limit both browser and game RAM usage to around 50-52% and make the whole system stutter when alt tabbing. I've ran memtest on both RAM sticks separately and made sure they're in dual channel slots; this also happens both when xmp is enabled and disabled. I've also tried reinstalling windows; updating to the newest video driver after ddu of old one, and updating bios. Here's the components:
AMD R5 5600
AMD RX 6700XT
Motherboard ASUS TUF Gaming B550-PLUS
RAM Corsair CMK16GX4M2D3600C18
PSU Corsair CX650 Bronze
I would appreciate any thoughts on whether this is normal since i've never had it happen to me on previous PCs. Thanks
