Windows 10: How do I prevent RAM Caching?

Is there a way to prevent RAM caching?I have a total of 128GB of RAM. I noticed that everytime my PC starts using above 70GB of RAM programs and other simple tasks completely crash and are unresponsive.Noticed that I have 50GB cached for some reason that are not being actively used. Could that be the problem first of all?And is there a way to prevent so much ram being cached?

Where is my RAM?

Hi,





Cache stored on Windows
10 restricts your PC
from working efficiently. If there is a continuous and high volume of cached read requests from any process or from any
driver, the working set (the number of memory pages in the physical RAM)
size of the system file cache will grow to meet this demand.
The system file cache consumes the physical RAM. Therefore, sufficient
amounts of physical RAM are not available for other processes.

On 64-bit versions of Windows operating systems, the size of the virtual address range is typically larger than
the physical RAM. In this situation, the working set for the system file cache can increase to consume most of the physical RAM.

We suggest that you clear caches on your Windows 10 computer to resolve memory usage issues. Few things that you
can try clearing are the Windows Store and Temp Files caches. Check out the steps below:

How to clear the Windows Store cache:

• 
  Press
  Windows + R keys to open a
  Run prompt.
  
• 
  Type
  WSReset.exe
  into the text box, then click
  OK.
  

How to clear the Temp Files cache:

• 
  Open the
  Start menu.
  
• 
  Type
  Disk Cleanup, then
  press Enter.
  
• 
  Under the
  Disk Cleanup tab, uncheck all boxes except for
  Temporary Files, then click
  OK.
  

Hope the above information helps.

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
