hi

so basically, my laptop has been using a lot of ram recently. i bought it like a month back because i needed it for school and the other laptop i have is a pavillion gaming with rtx so my dad didnt let me to bring it to school since i already lost my headphones at school.

ok so i have 8 chrome tabs open, 2 word documents open and 6.4GB of ram is being used. i once forgot the password of this laptop and i re installed windows using the shift + restart trick so if this is the reason then ill be sad. 

the specs are:
i5 11th gen

8gb ram and i only used 1 slot

512 gb ssd

intel iris XE which has 4GB gpu memory

my pavillion has 16GB of ram and i did the same thing (8 chrome tabs + 2 word docs) + i opened minecraft and valo and it was using like 13gb/16gb

this cant even open minecraft alone with a few chrome tabs and words because of ram ;-;
