OMEN 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC 16-b0000 (2W6B3AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

Hi community

HP Omen gaming laptop: running google chrome only with this support website open. 

Memory is at 57% 

 

I use for work 3D modelling software/ Adobe illustrator and indesign. 

I cannot have two open the system is at 99%. 

 

My collegues have less powerful computers and same RAM with no issues. So I wonder why the system uses so much RAM in the background (50%)

You can check Device Manager to see which one is the culprit. My HP Omem has 32GB of RAM and doing nothing it uses

16% of 32GB as shown above. I don't know how and why Microsoft Team is on the top given I don't use the product at all. Your machine may have one or two apps/services more.

 

Regards.
