Using my new laptop since about 6 month now and i really enjoy everything except more then 2 multiple d2r sessions since it start to lag.
Iam playing on legacy mode already because i like that graphic more. 2nd/3rd are only for BO and filling. I would like to run up to 4 sessions.

Is there anything i miss in the settings or shall i just raise my ram?
2x 16gb or better 2x 32gb - i only need the improvement for d2r (4x instances)



Thanks!

Can you post the model of the laptop?
Ram may be your limiting factor, but you can double check by:

Open 3 d2r instances
Open Task manager
Go to the “Performance tab”

If your RAM is maxed out that’s a good indicator you will need to increase it to get more instances running. It will show your usage for your other components as well in case anything else is maxing out as well

Ah gotcha! Thanks for the model. Looks like your processor is good. I did do some research and people are recommending 8gb per instance you'd like to run. Your laptop says it only has two RAM slots, and supports up to 16gbx2. Definitely recommend getting it off Amazon in case you need to return it if you run into issues still!

Before getting buying new RAM:

1. Make sure you are getting the same RAM (Meaning Same Speed) as the ones you have right now.
2. Find out how many SLOTS of RAM your current motherboard has and IF its using both already. (Your current Computer may be using 2x 8GB RAM slots OR it could be using 1x16GB RAM) so double check before purchasing new.
3. Double check which RAM you are buying, and if the RAM is supported by your motherboard, Most of the New Laptops or Computers come with DDR5 RAM which is typically a bit more expensive then buying DDR4 but its best to check before you go an buy new RAM for your Laptop.

You can also try mods that disable the HDR graphics, since you mention you run D2R on Legacy gfx.

I currently run each application and it only consume about 900MB to 1.2GB of RAM (I'm able to run 20x Copies of Diablo at the same time). I do however have around 64GB of RAM though.
