Hi all,

I got a question that what is the Page File size or Virtual Memory of a rig? Currently, it has been increased to at least 49g. However, I heard that the size of VM should be based on the total number of the GPU on the rig and the memory of each GPU. if so the VM should be different on each rig?

Also, is 49g the initial value or max value?

In theory yes each rig will have a different virtual memory depending on what GPU's they have.

If so, what is 49g based on?? if my rig has 10 * rx580 8g. what would be the initial value and max value??
If windows it managing it it's probably making it what ever it wants lol. If you set it to manual it should be set to at least 80gb (this only accounts for the cards you have to add more for windows needs)

so is 80g the initial value or max value? that is my initial question, as in windows 10, you need to enter 2 values, initial and mix 

not sure how you figured that 10GB of Virtual Memory per GPU is needed.
In fact I have several 11GPU rigs running phoenix on windows with 64GB HD... (That's tough and I doubt that anyone of you there is capable of doing so)
but you surely do not need more than 5GB per GPU
