Hot take: the game isn't designed to scale its performance with more RAM. Optimize other aspects of your setup instead like drivers and background processes.
From personal experience, I'd recommend checking for mods or third-party tools. There are communities out there with tweaks and enhancements to boost performance. Just make sure to back up your saves!
Try setting up a custom configuration file! Go to your Subnautica installation directory, find the game’s config file, and manually set the memory allocation values. Google up some guides on how to mess with .ini files – it's a bit technical but doable!
