Question Why is my RAM usage climbing to UNBELIEVABLE numbers ?

[inbinceable]

I am playing COD: Warzone and as I understand it is not a tough game on a decent setup although its not optimized well by Activision Devs. I believe my rig is more than capable, yet as I play I see the RAM usage start at mid 60s%(6.xGB RAM usage) and climb with what looks like no end. My game was starting to tap out at 95%(10GB RAM USAGE) Can anyone give me some tips or things to try? I have done certain things already from googling how to optimize warzone and try to get more usage out of GPU. Nothing seems to work. I am not really 1 to overclock, and the system is like 9 months old. any ideas?

It has been mentioned to upgrade to 32GB, but when it is continually climbing whats to stop it from doing the same with more RAM ? I'd like a fix over just throwing more space at it.

My rig:
CPU- AMD ryzen 5 5600x
MB- ROG STRIX B550 Gaming
RAM- Corsair Vengeance 16GB(2x8) 3200mhz
GPU- Nvidia 1660Ti
SSD- Corsair MP600core 1TB
PSU-850W coolermaster gold rx

Yes, I have done malware scans. Nothing has ever been indicated that I have any kind of bugs since I built this PC built this PC.

latest bios? chipset driver? and all other driver?
windows up to date? games is up to date?

Ok. so Im not quite THAT knowledgeable in these areas. But I tried to figure out if I have the latest bios, it appears I do. Chipset driver, I went ionto device manager and tried to do any updates it all seemed all up to date. Windows is up to date, game is up to date.
So I figured out that while I had some kind of Armoury Crate service running on my PC there was actually a utility app for it I could download of AMD. I got it and was using it instead to monitor my ram/cpu/gpu usage. It wierdly seems to have fixed the memory leak issue. I had constant 7500mb for about 3hrs.
However. Now I am having a similar/same problem of the in game chunking screen lag and it appears to be happening when my GPU is maxing out at 100%(or going over if thats a thing?) It ishovering around 70-80% and then spikes to 100% whenever I ADS on a player or there just alot going on on the screen. I see the GPU usage hit 100%, the frames drop from 100 to 25/30 and I usually end up dying cuz I couldnt react.
