What Can happen if i allocate all my Ram?

[IP0T]

My PC has 8 Gigabytes of ram, the only way I can play a pack without the memory dumping every few seconds is to allocate all 8 gigabytes, can anything bad come of this?

haha

the game crashes when it reaches the full 8 GB

I mean won’t your operating system need some ram too? Nothing horrible should happen but there are reasons for only using the minimum amount of ram required.

No organized mod pack require this amount of RAM excluding shaders and etc. Even packs like Resonant Rise and such only recommend between 4GB-6GB of RAM... 

 

If your having such problems on a standard mod pack even larger one(s) like the one I mentioned above then there must be a deeper problem.

its just a mass of mods that i've stuck together 

I've probably just installed one really memory intensive mod

should probably figure out what that mod is

Remove half the mods, see if the problematic mod was in the half you removed, if so split that group in half and repeat, if not try the other half.
