Memory Problems!

[Oli1549]

Hi, I have recently noticed more and more i am getting game crashes due to lack of memory, i wouldn't really know what i used to use running nothing on my pc but currently it is around 4-5GB.

 

Looking for some advice if possible please!!

what games are you playing that it crashes?

 

at what point in the game does it crash, like heavy graphics loadup

 

are you playing on steam?

I see that you have Google Chrome is open, It high recommand to close Chrome as it can eat a lot of RAM. I saw it eat 5 GB before. Other than that are you have any mods on the game? I have look up more on the game than find a lot of people talk about 32GB of ram is needed on high setting. Try lowing the game setting. I found Xplance 16-24 GB RAM or more for Recommended Hardware Requirements.  How much virtual memory  you have set up?

Your not understanding the context, I am going from completely operational with no problems to unplayable. Nothing has changed in the game, google chrome is not running anything intensive either.

Also in the screenshot, DCS is nearly using 5GB and google chrome using 1.5, lets round that to 2GB. Thats a total of 7GB leaving 11GB free for the other applications, using very little. This does not equal 96% of memory usage.
