Important parts

What is the issue you’re having? As explained in title, I installed an identical kit of ram to the one I already have installed after noticing the ram usage at almost 100 percent in two games, FiveM being one of them. I also had stutters/ unsatisfactory performance in both these games which I assumed was due to the ram bottleneck. No other part of my computer reaches even close to 100 percent usage while gaming.

What are you trying to do? Increasing the ram usage in order to hopefully reduce or eliminate stutters while using FiveM

What have you tried already to fix the issue? looked through the settings of both GTA V and FiveM and googled extensively

Error screenshot (if any): none

What did you do to get this issue? play FiveM

What server did you get this issue on? Be specific and name some, ‘all of them’ by itself isn’t useful!
Project Homecoming racing and testing server


Additional comments

I’m running the game without a framerate cap at 1440p on a 120hz screen. I will try capping the framerate which may solve the stuttering but not the issue of the ram usage.
