Unused memory is wasted memory, Windows will use free memory to cache things for performance reasons.

Explain a little further: this has nothing to do with your PSU upgrade. More likely the reboot made Windows do a re-evaluation of it's hardware use and used some RAM for cache since it found you don't use all 32G very often.
