Why is Overwatch 2 choking on 4GB ADATA Valueram 2666?
The second I hit a team fight, my memory usage spiked to 98%, forcing the system to lean heavily on the disk swap file, which caused these brutal 100ms freezes. I initially tried nuking all the graphics settings to low, but it only gained me about 5 FPS and the game looked like a pixelated mess, which was honestly a joke. I eventually decided to ditch the automatic virtual memory and manually assigned a 16GB page file specifically to my high-speed NVMe SSD. Checking HWiNFO, the swap frequency dropped from 12 times per second down to 3, and my frame times tightened up from a wild 25-60ms range to a steady 18-24ms. I actually wasted an hour setting the page file on my old HDD first, which just made the stuttering ten times worse until I moved it to the SSD. My CPU stayed around 64-70℃ and RAM sat at 42-48℃. The frame delivery is finally consistent at 18-24ms, though 4GB is still a struggle for 2026 standards.
