Question RAM stays extremely high

[Solosis]

Hey,

My RAM constantly stays extremely high (~85%).
This is the tasklist I got after gaming and programming for ~6 hours or so.

I'd be more than happy to answer any other question.

Thanks in advance,
Solosis

Don't know how I forgot to include that, sorry. Around 85% at all times.

Memory Compression

What could be the cause of this?

Java
Opera

This is the tasklist after I closed both and waited for 20 minutes (79%): https://pastebin.com/uN6NrWBS

I noticed my RAM doesn't go down after closing a game, although the process disappears after a few minutes.

what game? could be issue with the java not releasing ram.

Destiny 2 and League of Legends. I don't think it's a problem with the game itself however. I tried other games such as osu, Dying Light, Black Desert Online, Minecraft, Skyrim, and they all do the same thing.
I sometimes have a Discord bot running locally which is also in Java. When I don't run it at all after a clean restart, the issue still persists.

I'm running the latest version of Java.

I used multiple applications to check for malware etc, found nothing. All specs are the same but I only have 8 GB as of now.

does bios see all 16 GB?
what did resource monitor(scroll to the bottom) said?

1 of my RAM slots went faulty a year ago or so. I only have 8 GB in my computer.

Is this what you wanted to see?

Well after looking at mine I can def say that all yours is taking too much Memory. For an example.

Registry 70,980 K

Mine is like 600K.

Why is speccy showing 16GB of RAM if you only have 8? Did you remove the faulty stick from your system?

I removed my faulty stick from the system, yes.
I figured I already posted my specs on another thread but I forgot I removed that stick in the meanwhile.
I do have 8GB of RAM.

Why would Registry use that much?

Can I have a screenshot of the process tab instead of the details tab with the things taking the most RAM at the top.

 

[Solosis]

Can I have a screenshot of the process tab instead of the details tab. Filtered by the size of ram they take.

Currently sitting at 86%

Discord is litreally only using around 230-240 MB at the moment, being the highest.

And where the resource monitor bottom half?

Ah, inside the memory tab. Sorry, here you go:

 

[rgd1101]

With only 8GB, you are running wait too much background apps.

Does that seem like the only issue?
