I currently have 8gb ddr3 1600mhz cl9 ram installed in my computer. This would seem enough for most games etc. However for some reason when i load up a game, battlefield 4 in this case, it tells me all my ram is being used up, even though it's only using 500MB of it. Have i done something wrong? or is this a litch i should ignore? I'm not sure
