a lot more goes on under hood think.

when uninformed (sorry - that's how people) computer user looks @ technical numbers of things going on in computer, won't understand lot of it; if think do. when comes ram, i'd users choose opt 8gb of ram opposed 4gb of ram mistaken: don't need more 4gb, , won't use more 4gb given computer. note word most , not (i find when use word "most" on forums, quoted anecdotal evidence if made sweeping "all" statement).

alright, ram showing having of being used: know means? when @ free ram , used ram, thinking used ram taken up, , unused ram have free. isn't case. system reserve ram (so show not being free) tasks. may have computer showing using x amount of ram, in actuality have lot more leeway you'd think because of things going on os , software.

anyways, don't sweat it. don't @ how ram you're using , worry unless if hitting roof (0 ram used) , need more. 1 know when need more ram.
