Fixing memory overflow in Total War: Warhammer III?
Staring at that loading icon for an eternity while my anxiety spiked was the worst part, especially when switching camera views. Even with 64GB of KingBank Black Blade, the memory controller was hitting 15-22ms response delays during huge unit renders, forcing the system to swap data constantly between RAM and the page file. I tried dropping all graphics settings to medium, which gave me a measly 12 FPS boost but didn't stop the freezing—just a depressing compromise. I finally went into the advanced system settings and manually set the virtual memory to a fixed 64GB on my fastest NVMe partition and killed every unnecessary background app. In Resource Monitor, the page file throughput dropped from 140MB/s to 35MB/s, and load times plummeted from 50 seconds to 18 seconds. I actually accidentally put the page file on an old HDD first, which made the stuttering four times worse until I moved it back to the SSD. RAM temps sit at 55-62℃, and the input response finally feels snappy.
