Re: Best gaming settings I've found

Hey, I tried larger but even with only Destiny 2 running if I open 5 Firefox tabs to look up a quest while a game is running I get swapping going on or low memory errors with 6 or 8 gigs on the cache. Six wasn't too bad but the hit rate wasn't any higher than at 4. With every game update it seems th...

Re: Best gaming settings I've found

Here's the best settings I found so far. A 50% hit rate off the boot drive basically makes games so smooth it feels like you're playing at a much higher framerate than you actually are. Pile everything (swap file, apps, shader cache, etc.) and 6gigs is good, but 4gb is good too if you have a lot of ...

Re: Best gaming settings I've found

Sure thing, also to size the time delay to write, I used HWmonitor and increased the time but checked to see when it did a write in games, that the CPU utilization never hit 100% on a write. 5 mins is best, if it spent 10 mins before a write then it would spike to 100% and I'd feel it in game, but a...

Re: What is the Best Config for my PC Gaming Rig. Still SLOW

Hey, I just got my game system dialed in with Primocache and it's flying. Here's the settings I use on a 16gb system: 4gb size with 16k block size, write deferred with 60 sec average. The key is not to use small block sizes for games as they tax the CPU. Hit rate will just be high in places like dun...

Limiting windows cache feature

Hey, I use a small utility called SetSystemFileCacheSize and it's a command line app you can make a shortcut to and put in the startup group to set the min/max Windows cache size and works really well. I limit it to 256/512 and with a 4gig Primocache it made all the difference. If an option was adde...
