any way to clear cached ram or tell it to sort the modfied ram so it can be used

The only time ram lags gaming is when there is a memory leak in the game.
One origin game does that. Filling ram until its full, running fine until that point.

[samcan244(73 61 6d)]

got a few games that have that issue or simmalar and its annoying. isnt that data stored in cach if its not using it but its still being held for some random reason but what else is gona cause the game to freez and only the ram had some noticable change

With 16gb ram you shouldnt have those problems "first".
So maybe there is something wrong with the hardware or its fit (in slot and in combination)?

[samcan244(73 61 6d)]

they are both in a blue slot but the os ive got has a really bad max ram happens when i set stuff to max 300-140fps but it suddnly slows i can only asume its ram becuse the vram is around 3GB/6GB usage rams at ~9GB in use and the gpus fine and i dont think its being caused by the hdd/ssd at the wait time is normaly short less than .5sec(unless what can be seen on ram is happing that caused delays)
its ddr3 ram

Until the ram usage in for example process explorer is not all full,
its not a full ram causing problems

ive got advanced system care and installed it correctly and i dont truse the os to do memory management or much to be honest

Who do you trust? The guys giving away software, trying to get you to shell out 20 bucks for the premium version or the smart, highly paid engineers with ~40 years of experience in OS memory management designing systems for an extremely competitive business server market, tech that then trickles down to us? If the OS memory management was bad, MS would be out of business.

Tools like advanced system care are the 21st century version of snake oil, they take advantage of your lack of knowledge about software and hardware to sell you something that doesn't work, and often breaks stuff. They do a few tricks with marginal benefits, tricks that any computer magazine/website writes an article about on a yearly basis, and nothing more. Try uninstalling that crap, it would surprise me if your freezes stopped when that tool stops messing where it shouldn't be messing.

did i say i payed any for anything?or say i trusted anyone over anyone else?
i have that installed for a fair few reasons and it isnt even running most of the time just when i manuels start it(and thats including background so its not that)and i think the only real reason everyone uses microsoft is becuse all games and softwhere use dx and if thay didnt i wouldent use windows becuse that has done more damage to pc than any virus me/freinds have had and as far as messing where i shouldent i dont think thats fair to say when windows decides to install candy crush saga on to my pc when ive never even played/installed that before
also might just be me but if ram has no reason to be used i would prefir that it was cleared instead of just caching everything that has happend on my pc

How much longer do you estimate would a computer keep functioning if there wasnt windows on it?

[samcan244(73 61 6d)]

quite a long time if it was treat in the same way

Or asked in other words: What did windows do to computers?

well it filled my first pc with viruses a 2nd one got really bad issuesand windows was just broken and after that i went and messed with windows hidden files and stuff and it started working better it totaly killed a 3rd pc ext...

[Muppet among Puppets]

It never filled my pc with virus, windows wasnt broken, and it never killed a pc here.
What does that say about windows?

There are aspects of windows that can be disliked besides.

[samcan244(73 61 6d)]

well getting a brand new pc and i start windows and it instantly starts getting issues and its not even had chance to connect to the internet yes i blame windows as thats all its been in contact with

as someone who spends a good chunk of his days removing viruses from peoples computers (part of my job) let me tell you, Windows did not give you viruses (unless you were running some shady pirated version you torrented)..

if you got viruses, it not Windows fault but the fact you likely weren't using safe web browsing tactics (downloading shady software, excesive file sharing, watching to much pornography, opening attachments or following links in E-Mail's from people you don't know, following shady links people post of forums or social media, randomly downloading stuff without knowing what it does)..


and I highly doubt it "killed a PC" either.. sure if a person improperly adjusts settings or somehow collects a butt load of malware an OS can be scrapped.. but thats not usually an issue with Windows, thats User Error, and even then the hardware should be find and a reinstall would get your machine up and running again quite quickly.. on occassion windows can cause limited OS damage on its own, but thats rare and usually affected by things like Windows Update


no offense intended but if you think "Windows gave you viruses" you likely don't understand a whole lot about computers..
