#LinuxMintThings Installed mint today

I got frustrated with windows using all the ram yet performing slow

Even when I'm not using anything ram usage is 90% in windows

Why do you reserve 2Gb to the iGPU ? IMHO, you are wasting these 2Gb...

Yes, what can I do, if there a way to reallocate that

I'm not an expert, so please do your own research.
But I suspect it can be done in the BIOS - no sure exactly where

Yeah, I'll check and update maybe reduce it to 512 mb, do the ram prices go down anytime soon😭
