As the title says, something has been eating up all of my memory as seen here: http://imgur.com/cAmlPSH
I dont think my computer slowed down as a cause of it but lately i was getting Warning windows popping up while playing games asking me if i want to terminate the process (the game) because i was running low on memory. Even when i decline, the game crashes/closes on its ow after a few seconds.
This problem started appearing recently. I didnt make any major changes to the computer or install any new questionable software (only steam games).
As shown in the picture, i have 8GB of ram: 2x4gb G.SKILL Ripjaws DDR3 1333MHz
I did some research on these types of cases and some people suggest it may be a virus/malware thats causing this but a recent scan found nothing. Others say its a memory leak but failed to provide a fix for it.
Any ideas what it might be?
Id appreciate any help, thank you!
