one note:
dont’t forget to check the commited memory and not the working set only. Only the commited memory show you the usage together with the pagefile. As example , If your msfs show show e.g. 18GIG usage, you may have 25GIG commited. Pagefile usage is in generaly not an issue, but SSD have limited write-cycles and so you limit possible the lifetime of your SSD.
So my recommendation: if you can upgrade to 32GIG then do it.
Example for a “See also” ( with an commited memory screenshot ):
I have 64GB installed.
With 32GB I saw some suspect memory swapping,
with 64GB, I see my memory management would seem to need a little less than 32GB.
MS Windows is bonkers.
I wouldn’t run the sim on anything less than 32gb.
I increased my Ram from 2 sticks of 16gb ram to 4 16gb sticks of ram and was pleasantly surprised at the increase in performance i gained between 3 and 7 fps depending on the area, smoothness in the sim was better and also noticed the render times drop slightly.
Since the upgrade I was also able to increase the lod sliders from 100 to 200 and had the same performance or better than before.
I will add though since the latest sim update I do have to drop the sliders back to 100 in dense area’s.
I do also use Ramcache III to set up a cache so it makes use of the extra ram available I now see 50gb ram usage in flight. But the actual increase in ram made the difference.
When I bought the extra ram I was prepared for it not to make a difference but it was a pleasant surprise.
I believe the quality of the motherboard probably makes a difference to.
I don’t think theses things always work for everyone see so many different post where something works well for some and not for others to many variables between pcs.
My pc specs:
I9-9900k oc to 4.9Ghz
RTX 2070 oc core clock +220 and memory clock increase of =1000mhz.
4x16 corsair 3200 ram
Asus ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO WI-FI motherboard.
750watt corsair psu.
