I've 8GB RAM, but the task mangers shows me processes % of 4GB only.
i.e. Google Chrome uses 457MB and the task manger show that is 11.3% of RAM and that means 100% is about 4GB??

There is absolutely nothing strange about your memory usage. You have nearly 5 GB available immediately if an application needs it.

The computer becomes slower and kinda laggy when the percentage gets higher than 80% while that is 4GB only? does the percentage include the cached amount of ram or what's happening in this case?

Unless you are getting messages about low memory (virtual memory), the slowness your encountering, isn’t caused by your memory usage. You are not showing every process that is running on your system in Task Manager, and services on your system, use more memory. RAMMap shows your true memory usage

“there are 3221 MB cached? Is that normal?” – Yes. You absolutely want as much cached data as possible. Cached data is immediately discarded when applications require more RAM.

Your first image shows your task manager at 100% disk usage and 46%-52% memory usage. Memory isn't an issue here. Your computer should work fine even if it passes 50%. It doesn't start showing issues until it goes over 80 (like you said.) The 100% means all 8GB is being used and this can slow your computer down to the point where it constantly freezes. I'm not sure why RAM is shown as a percentage, but Chrome is only using 457MB out of the 8GB you currently have. At least, that what it should be doing.
Although, I would currently focus on lowering your disk usage since it is at 100%. This is bad on HDDs and can cause issues in the long run.
