do i need an RAM upgrade when my PC use above 80% of it when i'm running a game for example Dark Souls III ?
 
That depends on how much physical ram you actually have on your system/laptop and what your OS is...? If you're on Windows 10 and the consumption of resources is high, something like 20% and more, then you have a memory leak.

Regardless passing on your full system's specs and your OS would be a good place to start and move on from there. List them as:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
 
CPU : Intel Dual Core E8400 3.00Ghz (now overclocked to 3.6GHZ)
Motherboard: Asus P5QL Pro
RAM: DDR2 1066Mhz (dual channle working on 801Mhz) 4gb A-DATA 2x2
HDD: WD 1Tb (no SSD)
Vid Card: Nvidia GTX 650 2gb ram (ddr5 128bit)
PSU : 650w ( don't know what)
Chassis: Asus Vento A2
OS: Windows 7 x64 Ultimate
