Constant Multiplayer Crashes

[MobiSev]

I have been crashing to desktop every time I try to join multiplayer servers lately, and I am unsure as to the reason.  I have a good CPU, a pretty good GPU, and more than enough RAAM (32GB).  I have attached the log file from the most recent one.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

32Gb is not sufficient for larger multiplayer servers. This is evidenced by your system running out of memory based on the log. From the DCS log analyser:

Your System ran out of Memory

• Increase RAM or pagefile

There is a GPU-related error

• Remove any overclocking from your GPU. Uninstall your GPU driver with DDU and install a clean one.

Advice

• Change your pagefile to at least 32768 MB (initial size).

Tuning Tips

• Enable Full Screen mode.
• Turn off SSAO.
• Consider using TAA instead of MSAA.
• Turn off SSLR.
• Set Shadows to Medium.
• Disable civil traffic.
• Set Water to Low.
• Decrease Terrain Textures.
• Turn down MSAA to 2x.

For the page file issue (note that the below is a bandaid fix to give your system an additional 32Gb without actually adding an extra 32Gb physical RAM):

• You only have a 5Gb page file, so I'm assuming a default Windows system managed one
• Set a custom page file with Initial and Max values of 32768, click Set and Apply, and then restart your PC
• Make sure you have a single page file and it's on your fastest SSD and remove any other page files

10+ years ago, it was standard with 256GB in our workstations. Now it's 512GB. Oil and gas. Seismic files can be 100GB+. DCS is a couple of steps behind.
