Allocating more RAM to games?

[GoatSandwich117]

I have been looking for a whil to see if there is a way to allocate more RAM for games,
all I'm seeing is "It's not possible", or "Your O.S does it automatically" but I have done it before
on other P.Cs for games like minecraft but I forgot how to do It.

Any Help/Advice?

Generally not possible. All games you have on your Steam account are 32Bit applications anyway, so they can't utilize more than 2GB RAM anyway.
Not that allocating more RAM would make them run faster, as they were developed with that limitation in mind. They just wouldn't use it.

Minecraft is a special case, as its Java based.

my total war warhammer is for no reason (and yes i have ruled out malware) slowed down loading battles and even for the game to load up after pressing start on the launcher. and i see on task manager it is only using 0.5gbs how do i make that better to at least 1.5gb

Don't need fps, need games to actually use more ram. I got 16gb, but I never come close to what other people seem to use.

Tweak your game then. Ask those other people if they maybe installed some RAM-consuming mods or changed the game's RAM allocation strategy.
