    Low Memory Warning - Virtual Memory Settings?


    The only reason I mentioned this is SLI is currently a disaster on windows 10, crazy huge memory leaks, and using a single card setup there are still some minor memory issues as well.

    Low Memory Warning - Virtual Memory Settings?


    Ironically during rendering I got a Driver Error and upon checking, I didn't have the Win10 Nvidia Drivers installed. A bit of an oversight. Do you have any suggestions on the optimal settings in Virtual Memory or should I set it back to default?
