Huge memory leak issue

[TheIronMinerLv]

Hello!

 

For past few weeks I have a huge memory issue, that becomes more and more annoying to deal with. Few minutes ago I did a fast "test" with task manager - I only had task manager and Skype as active applications, the task manager showed this:

 

0%CPU, 94% memory, 4% disk, 0% network usage.

 

The first on the list was (and still is) "System and compressed memory", here is a screenshot of task manager right now.

 

I tried many optimizations (what I was able to find in google), but nothing really helped. Its hard to work with computer as good as mine is, so please help! I can afford new ram etc., I just need to know what to do.

 

My Specs:

 

► MB - MSI Z97 GAMING 3
► CPU - Intel Core i7-4790K
► RAM - 2x Kingston Xyper x 4GB 1600Mhz
► GPU - MSI GeForce GTX 960
► HDD - 500GB NCQ Seogate 7200rpm

 

I'll appreciate any help from you guys!

Windows 10 is likely stealing the memory for some system application that is acting strangely, check to see if this is the case by using the resource monitor, otherwise you may have a virus but more often than not memory issues on windows 10 are caused by the OS itself

Otherwise you need to update to 16GB
