i was playing path of exile with a path of building open and maybe 5 tabs on google chrome and my game came up with an alert "armoury - paging file too large" (i didnt read it all tbh so i might be wrong i jsut clicked it away) it could have said too small im only 75% sure. i continued to play the game for another 5mins then it closed itself.

so what exactly should i set my page file too? ive read something thats says initial 1.5x your system ram and maximum 4x system ram. i have 32GB. so should i really be setting this at 128gb? i checked and mine is set to less than 5gb

posted in this section because it relate to RAM?

but my game did crash like 5mins later. if it was just asus playing up would that have happened?

do i need to set it for all of SSDs separately?

Well after having all the things running I had previously I can at most see 25% used...

well i change dit to 8 and 32 max. if i get this problem again i will have another look and see if windows handling it is better. i would assume thats how it was anyway. i cant really set it to x4 (as suggested by the google search i did) as that would be more than my OS drive lol.
