In search type This PC, right click on it and choose Properties
Then click on Advanced System Settings
On Advanced tab where it says Performance click on Settings
Click Advanced tab
At the bottom you will see Virtual memory, click on Change
1. Uncheck Automatically manage paging file size for all drives
2. Check Custom size
3. In the Initial size (MB) type: 3000 (or directly 16000)

5. Click Set , then OK and Apply
Restart the rig

POWER PLAN AND OPTIONS
In search type Power Options
Click on Show additional plans
Select High Performance plan
Then still on High Performance plan, click Change plan settings
Select Never on all four selections for Turn off the display and Put the computer to sleep
Click Change advanced power settings and look for PCI Express -> Link State Power Management, make sure it is set to OFF, usually it is but better to check on that
