So my RAM usage is high, I have 8 GB RAM on a year-old laptop which has an i3 and I run Fortnite and get decent 60-90 frames but recently after I updated my Windows 11 my RAM usage went from 50 to 80% on IDLE which is very bad cause I can't even use about 1 GB of ram for games which is now only getting me 30-50 fps. I can get my RAM usage back at 50 or lower.
#RAM USAGE

Disable startup apps
And upgrade to 16GB (if you can)
Windows 11’s minimum ram requirement is 4GB

^ Just turning on my PC with nothing opening used nearly 5GB. In task manager search the memory tab making sure the arrow is pointing down. That will show you what's eating RAM.
||I am aware of the excessive tab use on opera, it would say around 100, but I closed them off for now||

And opera is supposed to limit ram

true but the only ram difference I've seen is about 500MB which is actually pretty good for abt 5-10 active tabs for me
