Hello Everyone,
I have a custom built PC with an i7-4790K, 2 GTX 980s, and an H100i cooler.
I remember a while ago I looked at task manager as I was sitting in front of my computer.
This was about a week ago.
I saw my browser, Firefox, was taking up 300MB of RAM!
At first I thought nothing of it, and I sat back down today and checked the task manager and again the same thing happened. 300MB of RAM, and I checked my CPU usage while I was at it and it showed Razer Synapse taking up 50% of the CPU!
I have a ROG Swift monitor, and I saw on the internet that because it is a high end monitor it requires lots of resources and therefore Firefox was taking up that much RAM, but I highly doubt this. I may be wrong though.
My RAM is Corsair Dominator Platinum 1866MHz 8GB.
There are no viruses, no malware, I used anti-malware and anti-virus softwares and I know exactly what I download, where I got it from, and how to download without spamming next which usually results in toolbars and other unwanted malware. Neither softwares were open as I was checking my Task Manager.
Windows 10 64-Bit by the way.
All of my fans are mostly free of dust, fan filters are clean.
Thank You,
ProLeopard
