    Should I modify my Virtual Memory?


    Like the title says, should I do some changes to my virtual memory? The numbers seem rather low and I was wondering what should be the correct values. I have 8GB of RAM and I don't know what numbers to add to improve my performance in games. I have Windows 10 Pro 64bit, Version 2004, OS Build 19041.572.

    :)
