Space Journal #1: So Apparently i  was dropped on the moon like i'm a mars rover, in a matter of hours i have found the transformers on the dark side of the moon. Turns out its not that dark since dem robots are filled with lights, i waved hi to the Russians on the space station, turns out all those stories about space finding humans instead of the other way around is true(soviet Russia joke). They threw me some Heineken beer and I've been sitting staring at the people of this forum and earth since.

Windows 8 reserves a lot of RAM for faster multi-tasking. This reserved RAM is released if you use a RAM intensive application. It's nothing to worry about.

 

Edit: Correction, it should be released. Check to make sure that you have 64-bit windows.

Here you go (No MIR/Promo)

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 | http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

What all do you have running in the background? I've had quite a few things running in the taskbar eat up quite a bit. You also might check in Task Manager "Startup" section so see whats in there.

i had the core things like, steam and origin. and microsoft Emet, and nzxt cams and logitech software. i disabled razer vortex and alot of other stuff
