hey all. I've tried different ram, a different windows version, I've messed around in bios and updated it as well. How can i get my pc to register the rest of my ram??
there might be hidden ram drives that helps offset some I/O to the slower SSD/sata drives. (Edit: like my Radeon replay buffer I config it to save to Ram instead of to disk, I have 128GB so I can afford keeping those buffers in ram.)
I remember an old HP driver that would just take up all the unused RAM, until it was needed. Then it usually used enough less RAM to let whatever happen. This is some time ago, but I wonder if some Windows application is "reserving" RAM.
I'd recommend a more detailed look at per app and per process RAM usage. Maybe look at Process Explorer? See how RAM usage changes under load?
Only issue is most of what I use it for is gaming. Do you know any Linux distro that would be best for that? I would also like forge launcher for games with the partner
