Should I adjust virtual memory for G.Skill DDR4 3600?

Every time I entered a high-density crop area, the game would just vanish and dump me back to the desktop without a word. It's incredibly frustrating. The 16GB on my G.Skill Trident Z RGB kit is barely enough for ultra settings, with usage constantly hitting 14.8-15.6GB, which kept triggering the system's memory protection. I tried killing every single background app, but that only saved about 500MB—still crashed during save loads. I eventually went into Advanced System Properties and swapped the automatic paging file for a manual fixed size of 16GB to 32GB on my NVMe SSD. Resource Monitor showed the commit charge finally had some breathing room, and the crashes dropped from three times an hour to zero. I actually tried putting the page file on an HDD first, but that added 18 seconds to load times, so I moved it back to the SSD. RAM temps are 36-42℃ and disk load is around 15-28%. Event Viewer confirms the memory access violations are gone.
