Oldmanwho Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 Hello, Whenever I play DCS, after a while, it either stutters really badly and then recovers, or it crashes. I looked around and I don't know what to do about it anymore. I love the game so far and would like to get more than 10-20 minutes into an engagement before a crash. Please help! dcs.log

I presume 32 GB would be enough?
Flappie Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 DCS users with 32GB of RAM still need a good 16GB-32GB pagefile depending on graphcis options used. If you dont want to use any pagefile, you want to have 64 GB of RAM. ---
Oldmanwho Posted September 1, 2022 Author Posted September 1, 2022 I just want to run medium graphics, and im fine using a pagefile. I just dont really want the game to crash.
Flappie Posted September 1, 2022 Posted September 1, 2022 Then 32 GB of RAM should be enough, yes. ---
Oldmanwho Posted September 2, 2022 Author Posted September 2, 2022 The disable hot plug thing and pagefile increase seems to have worked, as I just played for probably 2 hours without a game crash, with a few other applications open. Ill still consider getting more ram however, as I dont think it could hurt. Thanks for your guy's help! 2
