    RAM usage high on idle
    « on: June 06, 2013, 10:14:42 AM »
    Hey everyone, I am not sure exactly where to post this so I am going to post it in both hardware and software (please forgive me).

    I just upgraded my computer to:

    ATI 7950
    AMD FX (tm) - 8350 8-Core Processor
    8 GB RAM
    Windows 7 64 bit

    Also, reformatted and re installed windows.  This just started happening after the re-installation of windows.


    The problem is that when I am not even using my computer, even at first start up, it is telling me I am using about 1/4 of my ram.

    Maybe you guys can help.  I will try and provide as much information as possible.
