Can virtual memory fix crashes in Deathloop with 8GB Kingston RAM?

Honestly, trying to run this game on 8GB of RAM in 2026 is like trying to run a AAA title on a calculator—it's insane. The stuttering was brutal, and it felt like the VRAM and system RAM were fighting for air. My Kingston DDR4 2400 was pegged at 95-98% usage, forcing the system to rely on a painfully slow pagefile. I tried disabling Windows services, but gaining 300MB of free RAM was a joke and didn't stop the freezes. I eventually moved the virtual memory to my NVMe drive and locked the size at 16GB, while killing the Superfetch/SysMain service. DiskSpeed showed pagefile latency dropping from 120ms to 15-22ms, and the map transition deadlocks vanished. I accidentally picked the wrong partition at first, which made boot times crawl, but moving it back to the C drive fixed it. RAM temps stayed at 38-44℃, and the fan stayed steady at 1400-1600 RPM.
