| Vista x64 Ultimate | Re: 4GB RAM & PageFile - needed ?? I have 16GB of RAM. The paging file is used for much more than paging now. You need it in Vista. My paging file is 16GB for Photoshop CS2. |

| Windows 7 x64 | Re: 4GB RAM & PageFile - needed ?? Paging file should be 1.5 times larger than the amount of RAM you have afaik. Or I just keep mine system managed and stuck it on my second hard drive. |
