How to fix memory overflow on Kingston Fury 8GB DDR3 in Palworld?
The screen would just freeze for a split second and then boom—straight back to the desktop. This happened constantly as my base grew. The physical 8GB limit of the Kingston Fury DDR3 is just too small for the pathfinding calculations of a huge Pal colony, with usage constantly hitting the 7.2-7.8GB ceiling. I tried using some third-party RAM cleaners, but that actually caused massive frame drops the moment they triggered, making me realize you can't just 'software' your way out of a physical hardware limit. I went into the advanced system settings and manually locked both the initial and maximum page file size to 16384MB, placing it on my fastest NVMe SSD partition. In Resource Monitor, I watched the commit charge expand from 8.1GB to 14.5-16.2GB, and the stability improved instantly. Interestingly, the initial 16GB page file actually slowed down my loading times by about 3 seconds until I disabled the disk indexing service. Memory temps sat between 42-48℃ with a steady 1.5V. After a 4-hour stress test, no more crashes, and temps stayed at 42-48℃.
