#excessive ram usage

anyways
as we said your ram usage is fine
yeah so its fine
first of all why want to lower that
Have a look at what is using the most ram and just close the process
Don't worry so much
Windows will use alot of ram if theres alot excess
I saw a screenshot of your processes and nothing is using way to much ram, just collectively using alot, so its probably fine
Send a screenshot of the processes
all the way down
huh
Click on the 82% to sort by usage and show what is at the top
I would maybe give your system a restart - not a shutdown, to do a clean boot
Just ask ChatGPT
tbf, Windows and other software is all greedy af, if there is RAM there then it'll try and use it
What sticks do you have?
Don't worry
I would probably blame icue for that
In your c drive you should have a file called restore icue
its either in the CPUK folder or just in the c:
thats should work
Regarding the ram I wouldn't worry about it unless you are at like 100% and you are running out of ram, cause that shouldn't happen with 64gb unless doing something really ram intensive
Maybe check your startup apps and disable any you don't need
@normal current Also would like to apologize if I came off rude 😭 I just read what I said and that wasn't helpful
Might just be worth doing that restart, is this normal or has it just happened today?
I mean you could do a memory test to fill it all up and see what happens
That looks hella fishy
I'll send u the link if you want
Ah well yeah
Might of just been windows
if you do feel the ram creeping up again and again after shut downs you can disable fast boot
I don't know if it was a random glitch or windows just having some weird memory leak
Yeah, you do have alot of ram though so might go a bit higher
although minecraft has its own set allocation
Basically before the ages of ssds windows would just cache stuff to make your system boot faster
Now its very negligable
👍
yeah
one saves it to the modules itself and one is software
I think lighting effects just keeps the profile without icue open
Corsair couldn't of made a worse RGB software
- Setting up my rgb was a huge pain
Use icue, I don't like third party rgb software
you could use your motherboard software but I actually never done that
Once you get it going just close icue and never open it up again 😂
Do you have your motherboard software installed?
Guessing like mystic light?
Top right theres a settings icon - click that then take a screenshot
Argh I forgot, let me just search online, sorry
No I think it should be hardware lighting
Do you have that set to white? - lighting effects
Right you have mystic light
Its taking priority
hold on I did this but I forgot
oh
Mystic light does the same rgb thing as icue
:tada: Congrats @normal current, you levelled up to 13! :tada: 
There should be a priority thing in the software, I haven't installed icue on this computer so I really don't know :/ I'll leave it up to someone thats sure about it
