Got a new computer and my Installed Physical Memory (RAM) is 8.00GB whereas my Avaiable Physical Memory is 370MB.

I game on my PC and I am getting very low FPS with many lag spikes in all of the game I play, I'm assuming this is the problem, but if anyone notices anything in my specs that could be effecting my pc performance, id appreciate some help <3

    Your System is 64bit, but is your Windows 10 64bit?

    Please go to Settings App - System - About

    On System Type is your Version of Windows 32bit (x86)

    If your Windows is 32bit, that is the cause of this, since 32bit Windows can only address 4GB of RAM . . .

    Ciao,

    did you look at task manager to see which applications are memory consuming?

    CTRL+ALT+CANC -> Task Manager -> More Details -> Memory Column

    Please let me know the outcome.

    Ciao

    If you close Chrome, can you please share your memory usage and which application is using so much memory?

    It looks like Chrome is eating all your memory. Can you please:

    1. See if Chrome is fully updated

    1. In not, update it
    2. In both cases, close all you applications and restart your computer. Please let me know if this works.

    Ciao
