So I have 16 gigs of sd ram. The computer is decent but has a very bad motherboard with ram integrated into it. This could just be me not understanding it correctly but I think that It's only using half of my ram, It's saying it very weirdly and I am not really used to win 11. I'll attach some screenshots and feel free to ask me for more. This is the max amount of ram that I've been able to get it to use. I do not know the ram speed nor do I have it overclocked. The motherboard and ram are very weird and are a part of the Ryzen 4700s kit.

#

It's also bad for my performance as I've got a ryzen cpu that relies a lot on the ram.

There looks to be nothing wrong. Just in case, go to setting and scroll to about, click it. Then look for this at the top. If you take a photo, DO NOT share the device ID or product ID. I have 16GB and it looks like this.

That's the ss I've already posted

#

But why does it not use all of my ram, I've never managed to get it over around 50%

it will take some time [can be up to and over 2 hours on slower systems]

it also depends on what you're running obviously. as you can see i hit 26gb with ease
