Windows 10: setting virtual memory

i am using a 8gb laptop and i have found a lot of issues with out of memory and low virtual memory errors. upon searching in google, it said this:To calculate the "general rule" recommended size of virtual memory in Windows 10 per the 8 GB your system has, here's the equation 1024 x 8 x 1.5 = 12288 MB. So it sounds as if the 12 GB configured in your system currently is correct so when or if Windows needs to utilize the virtual memory, the 12 GB should suffice.however, windows recommended 1888 MB. what should i do?

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?
