Anyone know how to stop windows 10 from caching shit in ram? When I try to play 2 games at once windows freaks out and closes firefox and all my games saying i am low on memory although i have like 6gb left. Turns out windows is caching 7.6gb worth of shit.

I could buy more ram but 16gb should be enough if windows stops caching every little thing.

Inb4 buy more ram.

Yeah my pc does the same, even with the pagefile on ram usage still seems pretty high but it stopped the low virtual memory message from popping up at least

Paging is enabled. I think I set it to a max of 4gb.

Black desert online maxed and Paragon and Firefox.

Sometimes just Firefox and black desert.

I have a 512gb SSD so I'll just increase my page file from 4 to 16gb.

Doesn't seem like a VRAM issue like I initially thought since I was playing 2 games. I monitored my ram and it goes down to like 5gb left before it flails like a retard and closes everything.

I want to know why it's currently caching 8gb of shit.

I've never run into that issue before. Even when using 14 out of 16gb ram.
Modded minecraft + rust + adventure capitalist + Google Chrome watching twitch.tv on win10.
