Disabling superfetch will allow you to become a pony... Well disabling it will free your RAM and (hopefully) CPU usage since I am not quite sure where the high CPU usage comes from (will need some event logs but superfetch might solve this issue anyways)
This seems to have done the trick, it went from around 4.5GB (Varied from day to day) of RAM idle to just under 1.8GB (Still a bit high for an idle OS but i do have chrome/skype open so that's prolly what that is.)
I find it strange how something integrated to Windows actually makes it run inefficiently, but i did read something about it being mainly for business orientated software? i'm guessing since this machine primarily runs games it's throwing it all outta wack. But eh anywho, i'll keep an eye on it and see what it does.
Edit: The only thing i overclock is my Nvidia GPU as it comes stock like that anyway. Never even knew you 'could' overclock RAM. I figured the memory speed was determined by the clock multiplier and then from there you get the Mhz value?. But eh, my hardware know how is a little rusty these days.
