RAM usage spiked to 100%!!!

Memory: Corsair Vengeance 16GB 2400mhz 2x8.

Was playing Fortnite and it just spiked up, using 14GB. No, it isn't the game as this has never happened before.

I have it overclocked. Could it possibly be a bad overclock?

RAM usage should have nothing to do with overclock.
Fortnite should have some memory leak issue.

Yeah, but this happens on some other games as well. Examples are Black Ops 3, Minecraft (Weird one, but it happens sometimes. Not modded either), and Gears of War 4.

100% usage just means it being used. Nothing to do with an overclock.

Check with Task Manager the process that uses so much of your ram, whether it is the game itself or not

No game spikes up to 14GB usage of RAM. Not to mention the games I listed stuttered to the max.

EDIT: I have low settings on everything. I don't play very high settings.

Only games do it. I have checked task manager and it was the game and only the game.

And again, this isn't just Fortnite, this is multiple games.
