OK, so this is my first 64-bit OS, and with that, my first time using more than 2GB of RAM.
Now, in the past, I've always gone with a fixed paging file size which was somewhere between 1.5 and 2.0 times the size of my total RAM. It has served me well and I've never had a problem on a 32-bit OS with this.
The thing is, I am also aware that there comes a point where the RAM can handle everything it is served. I was wondering, now that I'm using 6GB of RAM, should I just disable the paging file or do I still need it?
My computer usage is just general use, plus games.
Wondered what your thoughts were, as all the articles online that I could find each gave me a different answer, so I thought I'd ask people who do more than just theorise their answers
