RAM usage creeps up?

[zigzag3143]

85% is where i would reccomend deleting it, I DIDN'T SAY IT WOULD BSOD ON 85% it BSOD's at around 94 - 98%

JS

Um no it doesn't BSOD even at 100%

Ken

Edit: antman is of course correct. I cant take a snip with all 4 gigs in use but it doesn't bsod, just pages.

 

[Antman]

Zag, they are miscussing RAM usage.

We cant use any program for optimize ram ? if yes plz name ty .

 

[spazzie]

Right....

Proof is 'out there' mate but go ahead and insist Vista was a success and people raved about its performance!

And Windows 7 is still unconvincing performance wise unless a whole slew of 'features' are disabled in order to achieve equivalent XP performance.

Fact is Microsoft haven't developed a decent desktop OS since the release of XPSP2.

RAM "optimizers" are a gimmick. They take data stored in RAM and write it to the page file. Yes, you now have more free RAM - at what cost to performance? Furthermore, as soon as an app recalls that data - where does it go? Back to RAM. See the problem with RAM optimizers?

I encourage relevant input from all knowledgeable sources. I do not even have a problem with irrelevant input from knowledgeable sources.

Spazzie's input is limited to why Windows 7 is a colossal failure in applied computer science. Agree with him and move on in search of knowledgeable sources.

Yes Antman, live in your world of denial and insist businesses big and small embraced Windows Vista because of this awesome computer science that it extolled but never lived up to its promise.

Or just accept that IT folks in governments worldwide stayed with and will continue to stay with Windows XP Pro for a very good reason.

lmao your terminology is off...XPSP2 is the second service pack that includes a slew of updates for the original XP...which is by far not a great OS at all. Please compare the original XP with the original 7...and then come back and troll please (if the original XP manages to survive being online without being infected for a few minutes). Businesses can harp all they want about how bat Vista was...but the real truth behind their hesistation to upgrade is their lack of spending in IT budgets. You can't expect to run P4s in your buisness until the end of time...buisnesses are there to make money...not spend it. I know of no business out there that puts IT at the forefront in the budget. Yes Vista required better hardware...but the fact it did is of no consequence by Microsoft...if I ran that company I would not let my software be limited by the expected "norm" hardware...that is the issue with change also. If someone doesn't force a change if they can than nothing ever changes

there's nothing wrong with your ram usage. i don't understand why people think they need to "free up" ram. all those programs do more harm than good IMO

Hi and welcome to seven forums. Your ram usage is fine. win 7 grab as much as it can normally to use unless its needed elsewhere, plus you are only starting with 2 gigs so having a free gig is actually good. btw we cant see the task manager shot as it is too small

Vista came out of the gate horribly, no doubt about that. It got a bad rap on day 1 and for a majority of people (many of which who have never actually used it), it continues to have a bad rap.

For those of us using it (I just got it full time in Jan of this year...as I was an XP holdout..but got a new job in a worldwide corporation, and Vista on the laptop was the standard), I have to say that my experience within Vista has been absolutely fine. My biggest complaint....it doesn't have a telnet client loaded by default thus I cannot easily connect to an unmanaged Cisco switch or router.

And Windows 7 is still unconvincing performance wise unless a whole slew of 'features' are disabled in order to achieve equivalent XP performance.

Tell you what, let me put your theories to the test. I just built 2 identical test boxes at work. They consist of the following hardware

• Asus P5QL Pro mobo
• Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 at 3.00Ghz
• 4GB Corsair DDR2-800 RAM
• 500GB Western Digital Caviar Blue hard drive
• Samsung 22X DVD Burner
• EVGA Nvidia 8600GT 256MB video cards
• Intel 10/100/1000 NIC's

I'll willing to install Windows XP SP2 on 1 of them, and the Windows 7 RC1 release on the other one. Give me specifics of exactly what you would like me to test with easily obtainable software and a stopwatch as my quantitative measure which can be performed within about 1-2 hours and I will test it out for you today and post my results.

This is nothing to worry about. It's a change that Microsoft implemented to more closely follow other modern day operating systems and make the best use of RAM possible. The system is simply caching things into empty and available RAM to speed up the computer. If anything comes along which needs that RAM, Windows will simply overwrite what it has cached....thus making all of the RAM you need available.

if i cant run any program with this ram usage its important for me that "free up" ram.

ty Ken .
if i'm going to buy a RAM for my pc,could u plz help me which model is better? or show me a way to optimize ram . i just want play game and keep windows 7 for my OS . plz help me .
ty for replay.

 

[pparks1]

What applications and games are you trying to run and what errors or problems are you having when they try to start?

It appears to me that you are saying
1). once my RAM is full, I cannot start other apps

However, my experience has been
1). My box (with 8GB of RAM), might have 40MB free RAM
2). I start Crysis, it chews up 1.5GB of RAM...which Windows immediately freed up when Crysis came along and said it needed it.

 

[Mikaka]

Just like pparks1 says, Windows will automatically free ram when its needed.

 

[stormy13]

These are from Vista (same happens in 7) with only 2 GB of ram,

Before

After,

You can see the differences in the other processes after BF2 is started (which will use over 1.5 GB if there is more than 2 GB of ram installed), with Windows even freeing up ram being used by other things. So yes you will be fine running Crysis.

 

[Jabdon]

ty all .
but when i run crysis warhead i have bad fps however we play this game in windows xp with best fps and stable fps but in windows 7 i haven't any stable fps . i use ATI 4850 and CPU E7200 . if all of u thing this problem have another source plz tell me .
ty for replaying .
