Hi, I recently switched my ram and I got 2x8GB RAM. On idle it uses about 30-40% (~5-6GB) and when I'm playing games it's always on 49% or 50%. It won't go up, nor down. Is that normal or not? thanks

What were you working with prior to the upgrade? As for the upgrade, did you get a kit r a matching set of rams from the same maker? Check and see which BIOS version you're currently on for your motherboard. Also, what are the specs for your system?

Please include your system's specs like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Case:
OS:

If the specs to your system are that mentioned in the sig space, please understand that sig space specs can and will change over time, making this thread and it's relevant solution moot to anyone who is in the same boat as you are in now. This is why we ask for specs in the thread's body.

Hi, before I upgraded I used a 8GB ram, no idea what was the name. It definitely wasn't gskill or those popular brands. I now got G.Skill 2x8GB Aegis DDR4 3200 MHz, and both are the same model. The motherboard is up to date, it's a B450 Aorus Elite running version F52.

CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X
Motherboard: B450 Aorus Elite
Ram: G.Skill 2x8GB Aegis DDR4 3200 MHz
HDD: Toshiba P300 1TB
SSD: KINGSTON SKC2000M8250G 250GB
GPU: AMD RX 580
PSU: LC Power LC500H-12 500W
Case: No idea
OS: Windows 10 2004 (OS Build 20190.1000)
