Enjoy your dead SSD, faggot.

>>105785024

>>105785085
I rarely go over 11gb of usage at a time its barely using the paged pool anyways

>>105785017

>>105785209

>>105785268
ad-ridden shitware. use qbittorrent. hell, even transmission is miles better.

>>105785327
But my vpn blocks the ads so i don't see them. Anything else? I'm not being a dick i genuinly want to know

>>105785017
You couldn't pay me enough to have this much bs on my computer. Jesus h christ

>>105785012 (OP)
From experience i only ever need 16. Anything over is so much overkill.

>>105785012 (OP)

>>105785428
oh. i didn't even know vpn's could block utorrent's ads lol. uhh it's open source, utorrent's company is a bit shady imo and they have a closed source model for utorrent.

>>105785745
qbittorrent has a similar UI if that's what you're concerned about btw, it was easy for me to make the switch so there's my two cents.

>>105785749
thanks ill check it out anon :D ive been using it since 2005 so its hard habit to break

>>105785562

>>105785085
why is pagefile bad

>>105785012 (OP)
no i need more, 128gb

>>105785017
i can't stand more than 4

>>105785012 (OP)
I only replace my computer every 10 to 15 years. May not need >32Gb right now, but what of ten years hence?

>>105785428
qbit has a torrent search engine, really worth it

>>105785012 (OP)
Are you cooming to AI again son?

>>105785012 (OP)

>>105785085
So, I've never found a straight answer on this. Is a pagefile bad? Is my SSD gonna be toast?

>>105785012 (OP)
Why worry about it at all? I just max it. It's nice to never have to ask myself "Wait, do I maybe need more?" because I can't have more anyway.

>>105791695
Get rid of that orange shit is useless

>>105785012 (OP)
Stop using bloatware.

>>105785012 (OP)
GOD I FUCKING LOVE HAVING 64 GB AND LAUGHING AT POORFAG 32 GB LOSERS

>>105794145
You say like ram is the most expensive thing in the world. 16 GB is enough for 99% of people.
Only poor people buy things that they don't need

>>105794157
I regularly use more than 32gb of ram having 100 tabs open and 2 games playing on 3 different monitors so I need it.

>>105794160
I've got the habit to always close the unneeded tabs or move it to a separate Tab Group (like Trash and remember to finish working on them and close them).

It seems like one of those ye old tales from back in the day when SSDs were rather new. These days it's suppose to be fine to leave on more or less. I tried turning it off once some years ago and I kept getting blue screens. But pretty sure that was with Windows 7.
I installed two nvme drives at the same time on this PC, one Samsung and the other WD. The Samsung has W11 on it and it's now 97% at health, according to crystaldisk, where the WD is still at 100%. Of course they're different drives so it's kind of hard to say if it's because the Samsung has the OS installed on it and due to having page file enabled or if it would have happened regardless.

32gb is the sweet spot right now.

Why no swap? It's important to have at least some

>>105794157
do you have the romanian edit?

>>105785012 (OP)
I have 64GB and even then I've still run out. Might have to upgrade to 128GB.

>>105794520
I don't, I got it from Google.

>>105785017
>Reee why is Windows 11 so slow

>>105791803
If you have abundance of RAM, Windows shouldn't be using much page file to begin with outside of maybe hibernating.

for a facebook machine 2gb is enough
I daily a 4gb machine
