Hello everyone,
I recently added 2.0GB DDR3 RAM to my system (now it's 4.0GB). Before this addition, memory usage in the Task Manager did not exceed 1GB (around 800 - 1000 MB). After putting on this additional RAM, the memory usage seemed to rise to around 1.3 - 1.5 GB without any programs manually started (right after startup). Is this normal or expected?
This is a brand new system and I'm a newbie by the way.

2.0GB OCZ DDR3 RAM (x2)
1TB HD
ATI Radeon 5770
