You probably have a memory leak in a program or some s*** lol. This is 10 chrome tabs and a bunch of other s*** open on my machine:
Does it stay like that after a couple days of your PC being on?

Just reboot when switching programs.

That's what consoles are for. If your PC needs to reboot because you're playing something different than before you either need a s***ton more memory or need to get a handle on background processes sapping your resources.Just reboot when switching programs.

I mean that depends on what kind of person you are. If you upgrade every year and don't care about NVMe as much then it doesn't matter at this point in time. Lots of people will upgrade to Z490/ intel 10th gen and that doesn't have PCI-E 4.0
Yeah, I don't know why, but it seems like with every PC I've owned I've had to restart after a few days.
Anyway, so I see these 5GB/s SSDs for like $200 and I'm thinking I must be missing something. Is it really that easy to match the lowest common denominator SSD for next gen?
I should have had mine revoked a long time ago.
For starters, I play with an Xbox 360 controller, I only play a select few strategy games with a mouse and keyboard. Second, I had my screen set to "Gamemode" for the past few years and I was shocked to see how great the picture looked after I turned that crap off.

On a fresh restart.
I had something called Intelligent Standby List Cleaner on my PC that I didn't have set to autostart. I didn't think it was doing anything since I still had high ram usage.
Yeah that is a program that cleans your standby memory to combat that Windows 10 bug I was referring to. However, it must be configured properly to have any effect or you can put it on a scheduler by way of the task manager. However, at least judging from the screenshot of your PC you have 4 gigs of standby memory that is effectively not being used by programs and not freed up.
I could never figure out good settings for it.
Decided to upgrade my gaming PC. It was still on a devils canyon i7-4790K @ 4.4. That CPU was still killing it, but It was running into some CPU bottlenecks with my 2080TI.
Should be a nice IPC upgrade.
Motherboard is arriving on Wednesday.
I did the same earlier in the year, except I went with a Ryzen 3800X
Nice! My next build I'm definitely going with a Ryzen CPU. I'm also hanging on to my 2080Ti for a while longer. I've gotten some good mileage out of it since I got it at launch and unless the 3080TI is DRASTICALLY more powerful (like 60-70%) I'm probably going to skip this coming GPU release and wait for the 4080 TI.
What I'm looking forward to is PCIE 4.0. and the Z490 motherboard I ordered will be getting a bios update that supports it when it releases.
Got it all configured finally! The Cyberpunk build is ready for some Cyberpunking! LOL
Well I've run into a problem. While playing Borderlands 3, my PC shut completely off. And would not shut back on for a few minutes even after unplugging the PSU and plugging it back in. Checked the GPU temps before the shut down and it was 63 C. Checked the cpu temps and it was 67C. Tried Assassin's Creed Odyssey. After about an hour same thing. Temps not looking crazy at all.
Ran OCCT and did a power stress test. It ran for 4 hours with no problem with the GPU and CPU at 100% load. GPU temps got to 63C, CPU temps got to 83C. As soon as I ended the test, my PC cut itself off. Since its pandemic season and I've got time on my hands, going to swap out the PSU since its about 9.5 years old and swap out my CPU cooler for something beefier. I'm hoping that the main issue was the PSU and not the motherboard itself as those are becoming hard to replace right now.
Sounds like a PSU issue to me. On a hunch if you can while the computer is on check the Event Viewer app in Windows. Even though it doesn't offer very specific info, if it is a Kernal Power error you can be at least 90% sure.
Will do. Still waiting on the PSU to get here. Amazon and Microcenter supplies are still low and I had to snag the only one I could find.
