Hello guys, recently my ram is getting all weird and the percentage is really high . For example

but when i reset my PC it comes back to normal and its all fine.

I got 8GB RAM. Is it time to upgrade my ram to 16gb? or should i do something else? please help as my computer go very slow when this happens and its very annoying.

Thank you.

Try resitting the memory. Boot up with one stick, then put the other one in.

If your on windows 8 make sure you have all updates installed, there was a known memory leak which has been fixed via an update.

Also can you do a screen of resource monitor just in case! Might show us more. Open it by typing resmon in search or just click on it in performance tab of task manger.

WOW you either have a memory leak or something seriously hogging that memory what do you have running in the backround go to resource monitor and see what if it shows in there what is taking all resources

The board is the gigabyte Z97X-GAMING 3

Sorry for the very late replay.

And I do have windows 8.

still that isnt showing what is using it have you tried going into task manager and ending what you are not using look for the item in there that is using the highest memory if not i would advise taking out memory and try stick at a time to see if there is a problem with the memory itself
