In the beginning of the game(GTA5) the RAM usage was around 3700mb -3800mb and it works fine without any lags. But after playing the game for around 10mins I noticed that the ram usage gets reduced to 3300mb and it never exceeds 3400mb. As soon as the RAM usage gets reduced the game starts to stutter a lot. FPS gets reduced highly and it never gets resolved until I restart the game.

So I wanted to know why it occurs and is there any solution to fix this issue?

You really need to get more ram. 4gb is barely enough to run your system. 8gb is the minimum recommended limit, and 16gb is a safe bet all around for any game.

Not to mention, if you're only using single channel (one stick) you'll see a fairly decent performance increase in fps and stability when switching to dual channel.
