every game lags on 8GB RAM computer

[its so balatrover]

My 4GB RAM computer died a few days ago and I got a computer with 8 GB of RAM, but every single game I play on steam lags hard. The lag was nowhere near this bad on my 4GB computer, which could run all the games I had at at least 30 fps or higher. On every game I play I get less than 20fps, usually down to 10 or less. Is there a way to fix this?

The performance of the computer isn't exclusively tied to the amount of memory it has.

What about the GPU, CPU, ect.

The rest of your PC specs are also important towards performance for different games, you'll need to make sure that your computer meets the PC requirements for the game you are playing.

Note you're playing games like civ6 and warthunder games that stress your memory (civ6) and your gpu (warthunder)

8gb is kind of the minimum and civ6 is probably stressing that very far im shocked you were playing it on 4gb unless you were using the 2d overlay only mode

your gpu is likely also very underpowered but that's mostly guessing.

post yoru system specs from

Steam-Help-System information

So going to leave out the core info that makes up explaing what between your old, and new?

What is the CPU, GPU on the old, and the new PC?

If you do not meet the PC requirments to run the game, that would be the reason. Just because having more RAM does not make up for having weaker CPU, or GPU, hence PC requirment. The RAM is what storage game data, CPU is what calculates your game data where things, goes, your GPU is what display your video output, textures, and etc. So it's best to know what your old, and new for their specs so we can give you the right infomation you will be needing to understand.

Without ANY info from your part, we can only throw guesses at what your issue is, and nothing more, we be shooting in the dark because how little next to no info beside just saying how much RAM you had, and that doesn't help us at all.

Not enough ram is rather stepping of frames.
IF the rest of the computer is able to run a game.

For example:
Fluid...... tak tak tak...... fluid.
That, if the game does not need more ram from the start. Dont know which would do that yet.
