8GB of RAM and 3.38GB usable with Windows 11

Hello,

I have a Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15ADA05, AMD Ryzen 5 3500U processor with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx, 8GB of RAM (3.38 GB usable), 64-bit operating system, x64 processor.

After browsing through many forums and videos, I haven't managed to increase the usable GB by changing the number of processors or the maximum memory by using msconfig, in "Boot" advanced options, or by going into the BIOS because I noticed I don't have memory remap or UMA frame buffer.

Thanks in advance for your tips ????

    Hello

    Moreover, 3.38 GB usable, marked at that location by Windows, doesn't mean much anymore; your programs use all the RAM whether it's 3.38 GB or the rest, the 8 GB will be used.

    Windows and recent programs manage RAM on their own, it's no longer very useful to try following tutorials from 10 years ago to change (or not) what is shown there.

    In Task Manager, it will often be "Windows processes" that use RAM; in reality, it is your programs that are behind them and hidden.
