I have G.Skill Ripjaws 2133 Mhz ram 2 x 4 and at idle, in windows 8.1, about 40% of my Ram is being used. Is that normal? I've ran malwarebytes and nothing was found. I was just asking because when i play games i get a high memory usage warning, and it sometimes causes my game to close. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks in Advance
 
Try disabling unnecessary programs when windows boots. hit windows key + r then type msconfig and hit enter. Look at startup tab and uncheck things you don't need running when windows boots. Anything you disable here can still be run manually after booting if you want. Your memory use is a little high but you should not be having problems. There are services you can disable but that's for more advanced users, and can cause problems if not done correctly. Try googling windows performance tweaks and see what other help you can get.
