I just built my system been up and running for about 3 days, but I recently came across this problem. I was playing a game and when I exited out everything was running extremely slow, like slow. So I opened task manager to see what was going on it said my memory was up to like 98% usage and my disk was 100% usage. I went ahead and stopped a few processes that were taking up quite a bit of memory and it lowered down to 90% memory and 1% disk... I figured 8gb would be enough to avoid things like this. But I don't quite know if the lack of memory is the issue... I do have a TON of background processes and windows processes lot from "Service Host Local Service, system, network etc" and a lot of other random from NVidia and "host process etc".
Any suggestions here? It shows 7.1GB in use and 875mb available system specs below:
