Depending on your Operating System, your computer may only be able to handle 3 Gig of memory, not 4. If you have a 64-bit OS you can handle 4, otherwise, the last Gig never gets used. I don't know you technical level, so please forgive me if I am telling you something you already know. I suspect you could improve your performance by running a program called Malwarebytes Antimalware. Google it - there is a free version. Also, you may have too many programs running all at once that you never use (such as adobe updater). That is a little more complicated to take care of though.
