Why does 2 tabs of firefox and youtube take up more cpu and memory space than running fucking GTA 5 online on max settings?

Guessing from the CPU usage on youtube playback with almost no GPU usage whatsoever I'm guessing that you don't have hardware acceleration enabled

>allegedly 2 tabs
>task manager shows 6 instances of firefox
>doesn't show task bar

sorry to burst your bubble friendo

what scaling % is that? lol get some glasses gramps

>why does youtube use RAM when streaming multiple videos on multiple pages?
You know how sometimes when you press on a video bar to a random place in the video it has to buffer and sometimes it doesn't? Well, there you go.

don't make me link you to linuxatemyram

>7 instances now
And you are sure you didn't hide anything on different desktops?

It takes about 30 seconds for a youtube video to stop lagging, but I can run a massive game at max settings without stutter. Is 8gb of RAM enough for gaming but not youtube?

its doing it by itself nigger

Im not the only one, but this shit is doing nothing

It's opening up multiple instances of itself by itself? Never seen that happening. And a topic in a support forum from 2 years ago is hardly proof.

I literally cannot think of anymore proof to give you. Im not fucking photoshopping my desktop to yank your chain asshole

Fuck windows 10, this fucking bullshit never happened with 7.

This is without firefox opened.

Mate, I don't know what shitty addons or other fuckery are causing his problems either, but multiple processes is normal.

>AdBlock Plus
Found your problem. You're using shitty add-ons.

Adblock plus causes massive memory usage? What do you use?

Not massive enough to explain your issue. But Sup Forums has been advocating uBlock for a long time now. And who knows what other extensions you've installed.

Because I don't ever have excessive numbers of tabs open, I close my web browser when I'm not actively using it, and I have more RAM than I need 90% of the time anyway. Letting Firefox be a bit greedy only gives minuscule performance benefits, but I personally get zero drawbacks in my use case so no reason not to.

welp, as of now ublock is my single only add on

You made me do this.

Your game isn't caching shit for one of two reasons:
1) It probably wouldn't improve the GPU memory bottleneck.
2) Games are first and foremost concerned with doing things first and minimizing GPU drain second. Making areas occasionally load slightly lower for people with large amounts of RAM available is not a particularly huge development priority.

being this much of a ramlet
