Paging File Assistance

[nankura]

Hello everyone,

 

Okay so, earlier in the week i found that windows was set to have the pagefile on my SSD, and i do alot of gaming and i like to have certain games on my SSD's, which causes a space issue because windows was giving over 40GB to the Pagefile, i found that to be odd.

 

So i changed the pagefile based on advice on other forums ( but i think the rigs were different so that may have been a bad idea ), to a minimum 1GB and max 2GB. and i started to have crashes, out of memory issues, multi tasking issues etc.

 

So i changed it again to a min 4096 and max 9096 and i have not seen an issue since then, but i still wonder if that was the right call either, so i thought id come here and check everyone's opinion on what the best method of setting up the pagefile on my system would be, to avoid memory issue's and game in peace and quiet.

 

so my setup is as follow's

 

Ryzen 1600

16GB 2400 Avexir DDR4

GTX 1070 Strix

3x 240GB SSD Samsung 850 Evo's - high end games and performance games

1x the SSD's has windows 10 Pro and thats the drive with the Pagefile configuration.

1x Seagate Firecuda SSHD 1TB - storage and low end games

 

Regards, appreciate any advice.

Is hibernate on?

 

I leave it on the ssd, you want speed here.

 

Really leave it system managed and don't touch it.
