How could I check this 

Did you fresh install windows or not?

 

Did you install AMD drivers on top of Nvidia drivers or not?

 

Regarding memory, you can check by going Task manager -> Performance Tab -> Memory

 

The whole memory issue was assuming your windows was fresh and/or there were no conflicts with drivers.

If you run out of physical memory, windows will use your hard drive/local storage as virtual memory and this is called the page file.

 

Those storage devices are much slower than RAM, so it's possible this is happening. 

 

Even more likely if your BIOS is still somehow reserving 2gb for the iGPU from your APU.

 

Look at windows performance and tell us how much memory you have available and how much is hardware reserved.

There is 48.6mb hardware reserved

And what about the current os I have 

Back up anything you don't want to delete

 

And during the install, select the current drive when you choose installation path. it will wipe it.

Reset this PC usually does the trick too. It *should* just reinstall the whole thing.

 

But I haven't tried it myself. I'm just too set in my ways.

And wait do I need to reinstall my mobo and GPU drivers 

mobo drivers are optional, but GPU drivers are necessary. then whatever else you need to use.

I only recently installed windows when installing the GPU 

Its all about windows

When i replaced my old gtx 650 with a new card i reinstalled windows and it worked fine.

And 3 days ago when i replaced my old i5 3550 with a new 10600k, i didnt reinstall windows and it actually caused my overclock to be unstable.

Did a fresh install and it works amazing.

Reinstall windows and instaol all of the drivers.

It will most likely fix everything
