Hi ! When i open the task manager and go to the perfomance tab it shows that 50% of my memory is being used (3,9GB of 7,9GB), which is super odd since the only program running is Chrome.exe, and it takes just 400MB, the others background programs are like 50MB not near of suming the 3,9GB.

This is my specs:
GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
Intel i5 6400
7,9GB RAM (i think its corsair vengeance ddr3)

Also i am getting some fps lag on heavy games, even with my gpu at 70%. Can it be my cpu or is it my RAM ?

Please help, i am really dumb at this stuff.

Sorry I ment resource monitor. You can find it in the bottom left of task manager. It gives more detailed info.
