Ram usage increased to 90% all the time, Problem.

[therobin9810]

So for the past week my RAM usage seem to have increased dramaticly, it now says it is up to 90% ram usage... :/
I dont know the cause but it may have happened when i drove to a LAN or drove home from a LAN party the past week. Although nothing unusual happend to it that could be a possible cause.
I can't play any games especially not bf4 because when i do my RAM goes up to ~97% usage.
Do you guys think that i should contact the store that sold it to me and let them test it and then give me a new ram that i can have, or should i maybe test my brothers ram (which is the same as mine)? My Ram is btw G.Skill Ripjaw 8gb, any help is appreciated!

Hello.

Malware and Adware can eat up memory too. I would recommend you to run a full scan using Malwarebytes.

May the force be with you!

Well to tell you the truth.. after failing to improve the issue with the use of a different ram stick, we were only left with testing the motherboard and power supply.

Dude i Booted my windows in safe mode and my ram was at 15%, so i know it is caused by a driver or a program in my computer (maybe smite). Then i booted it back normally and guess what... it worked somehow.
It now says that the ram is normal like before it is at 26 %,
I just want know why this worked i am really interested on how booting in safe mode then back to normal could help my computer. Thanks for your help any way, do you know why it helped?

I can't believe it, 6 years later, same problem, same solution. Thanks.
