Too much memory being used. What can I do?
Hello, I've noticed that my RAM usage has gone up by a lot randomly. It used to not be using much at all when I had lots of things open, but now, even with nothing opened (other than my browser), it is using 1.74GB out of 3GB.
Can someone help me situate the problem? Or should I simply buy some more RAM? I've been trying to play Sims 3 and it's been painfully slow...
My computer has 2 free slots and it can handle up to 8GB of RAM, so I figured I could get 2X2GB to have 7GB total.
Thanks in advance!
