980 Using All memeory

[Noxides]

So i have tried everything in my power to figure out what is wrong with my low FPS. I switch from a gtx 660 to a GTX 980 SC, i noticed that it has been using all of my memory and getting low FPS in every game. I have no idea what to do, went into TM and look at background programs, ect. https://gyazo.com/815d93a8b4f54f032f906e41ac7c7deb snap shot of it. Any ideas or solutions to why it is running like this? 3D mark score http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/11421056 I only upgraded the GPU nothing else.

what programs do have open? check running apps you may have a memory leak

Could you post a screenshot of all the running processes preferably ordered by memory usage, ensure you're viewing task manager as an administrator.

 

Edit: Just noticed in the screenshot, you have GTA V running, That would be using a decent chunk of your RAM, you're showing 5901mb in use which doesn't look unusual to me.

 

Edit: Could you take a screenshot of what the gpu clock speeds are doing while you have a benchmark or something running.

GTA V, i shouldnt be getting less then 60fps, but i fixed with moving PCI slots but now im still getting drops in FPS, which it shouldnt so programs are using more of the memory then it is supposed to https://gyazo.com/5735855d3183212273fa150532865f5d

That's not GPU memory usage that's your system RAM, in the case of GTA V, you can see the VRAM usage in the settings.

Ah thanks. Let me check that real quick

What I need to see is the GPU Core usage in MSI Afterburner when you're experiencing the low FPS

Alright, and sorry got busy for a moment. Wait one.

Ok I had this problem with GTA 5, what res are you running? I think there maybe a memory leak on it certain situations, at 4k I can get upto 24gb ram usage. What are other titles like? Maybe try lowering some settings in gta
