Hi Flappie,
First I would like to wish you a very happy new year. May 2023 be a year full joy, happiness, peace and good health for you and all who are dear to you!
Thanks for your tips.
1) Clear DCS cache: A couple of days ago I deleted the fxo and metashaders2 folders from the saved games folder. I also ran a full DCS repair. On the NVIDIA shader cache, I will have to do some research on this.
2) Pagefile: Currently the windows 11 is set to manage the page file automatically. I have 32Gb RAM, so I will give this a try and set it manually as you suggested.
3) Graphics driver: Current version of the Graphics driver is Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 v 527.56 which was installed around 8/12/2022. Install is performed by deinstalling the previous version and installing afresh of the new version. I install the latest version regularly. There is probably a new version coming in January so I will wait untill then for uninstall and reinstall of the GPU driver.
4) MemTest: Ran the MemTest today for approximately 2 hours with no errors (see also MemTest86-Report-20230101-124048.html).
5) Bios XMP profile: I have now disabled this in the BIOS
5) Update BIOS: I am going to hold off this step for the moment.
Thanks once again for the feedback!
Kind regards,
