Posted January 2, 2015 Author Where does it say 0% memory left? In Vegas?

Posted January 2, 2015 Under Physical Memory (MB) In the screenshot it shows 108mbs left but that cant be right.. I still have 8000mbs remaining.... See available and free. Just like @Fate said.

Posted January 2, 2015 Author Seems normal to me @Fate and @Minibois So your saying the amount of free ram Windows lets you use is half of what you have?

Posted January 2, 2015 Just don't look at the "Free" part and you will be less confused. You have 48% more ram still available (roughly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 2, 2015 In Vegas, there is a setting where you can define how much RAM is used while rendering. Look for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 2, 2015 Windows preloads programs into the RAM without you noticing or losing available (not free) RAM. This standby code can always get overwritten if a active programm needs more memory. If you really want to know, how your memory is used, open your resource monitor. The Task Manager is in my opinion one of the most inaccurate ways ever to look for your memory usage. (its good for a quick look tho) For example here is my RAM usage in the recource Monitor: I got 16GB in total but only 362MB are free. But 11932MB are available (Verfügbar) for any programm to use at any time it needs it. And thats not a bad thing, because i have about 11,5 GB preloaded programs and code. Operations who use this code will be faster than loading from the HardDrive. The preloaded code is based on your most used programs and this behavior is called prefetching. You can disable it, but there is no point in doing so. Only empty RAM is wasted RAM, it doesn't make your computer any faster only used RAM is good RAM because it actually helps you doing stuff. ~ ThxAndBye "You should remove any cats from the vicinity, because cats will cause all kinds of problems doing CPU installation." -Linus delid i7-3770k @ 4.2Ghz @ 1.265V | EVGA z77 FTW | GTX 680 2way-SLI | 16GB Corsair Dominator Platinum @ 1866MHz | 240GB SSD RAID 0 | Full Custom Water Loop with two 360mm radiators -> live temps <- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
