Let me guess, you’re playing “hardcore” with a bo barb and something else?

#1 thing that helped me was running d2r in compatibility mode. Windows 7.

Tried a bunch of other crap but nothing really helped: setting the d2r processes in task manager to realtime, limiting FPS to your refresh rate etc.

if running on laptop i would make sure that you are on maximum performance settings for your power options, and video card settings.

What is your current version of Windows while using compatibility mode W7 ?

it would be hard to run 3 clients with only 16gb of ram, yes this looks correct. Even at 80% full it might start to lag as the ram nears capacity.

have the same issue with 3 clients and 32gb of ram. I just got a new amd video card too. I haven't tried to figure it out yet. Just cross my fingers that a herald pack isn't around when it happens.

Pushing around 40gb of ram, with 3 clients open.
I never though I'd see the day where 64gb comes into play.
