My PC will be idle and use about 10% of ram and 2%CPU is this normal for a PC or does a healthy one literally have nothing going on in the background.

0% because anything more means it's not idle

RAM, who the fuck knows

will i looked in task manager and nothing really weird going on and its been like this since i built my PC, 16gb of ram installed but still like 10% being used and i think my CPU is being used up by like background apps like antivirus but i ain't that bothered by it, it's just the ram that is getting on my tits

You will never EVER measure a perfect 0% processor usage from within your OS. Why? Because like quantum mechanics, the simple act of measuring, changes the result. Meaning that by you measuring the CPU usage, you're increasing the usage by using a program to measure it.

RAM usage is normal, even at idle, since your OS will be caching things.
Unused RAM is wasted RAM

Literally doesn't matter, you should be measuring usage underload instead
