I have two r9 290x in xfrire and recently just bought a 4k screen.

However i am now getting crashes to desktop in a few games.

SHadow of mordor is one and the new star wars battlefront.

.

I didn't know SW:battlefront was out?

That m_buffer exception message is telling you that it's tried to create a system copy and has found insufficient space, although it's saying you have 4.2TB of resources free lol. It could possibly be a bug too.

1.5 times your physical ram it seems

4.2GB, not TB, and it's saying 4.2GB of virtual memory, which is disk space

yes a system copy, but 4290930032 kb is not 4.2gb lol

I have my page file set to 12GB (Samsung SSD) and AB reports 10GB in use when playing GTA V.

Your right, I looked at the last bit that said total resources 4.7GB and assumed the first bit had the same number of digits

I would make sure your computer is completely stable, errors like these can occur for all kinds of reasons.. I remember having one of those factory overclocked MSI cards that they didn't set the core voltage high enough in and I used to get "out of memory" crashes in one of the Battlefield games until I either downclocked the GPU or upped the voltage.

Stupid page file thanks to Samsung Magician software was set to 200Mb.

Reset it to 18Gb aafter having a clearout of my boot drive (now 89Gb free ) and mordor and star wars play now without crashing

 

[SamG]

Thanks all. Samsung Magician was given me the same problem too.

Just to note the reason to set it to a set size is for hdd's so one space on the disk is allocated this portion. If you set it to Windows managed it will likely having to move around to different areas of the disk meaning slower times.

I imagine that on ssd's this doesn't really matter, PLUS you don't want it writing to the same portion of the disk tombs and time again with the ssd.

Closed Alpha that ends today.

1.5X your ram is an old school rule, it's not really relevant anymore like it was when people were running 256mb of ram or 512mb

1x is usually good enough to never run out of pagefile.

windows should warn you the pc is running out of memory and warn you it's going to close gtav.exe or whatever game your playing.

happened the first time I set gtav to 4k but was always fine at 1080p
