Hello, I don't know if this is the right place but, I'm having an issue with my RAM. I'm playing GTA 5 on Medium settings with a GTX 1060 6GB, i5 - 7400 and 8GB RAM. Task Manager was showing that my PC was using 7.3 GB out of 8GB. What could be causing that? Happened in Watch dogs 2 and Mass Effect Andromed as well.

Your task manager tells you exactly what's using the RAM.

Those are all fairly demanding games, and 8GB of RAM doesnt go as far as it used to, I would upgrade to 16 if you can, otherwise look at the processes tab, it will tell you exactly what is eating your ram.
