I’ve 8GB RAM, running BF4 on Win 8.1, no other apps (Chrome with Battlelog).
If I’ve the swap space set to 8GB, after a while I get a BF4 crash (out of memory). If I let windows manage the swap file, it works fine but it increases to about 20GB after a while.
Is there a memory leak somewhere or what’s going on? Surely BF4 would be able to run fine with 8GB of RAM?
What is your video card and processor? There is a memory leak that happens from time to time with certain combinations. On my computer before I changed video cards, it would fill up the memory without a process in task manager visibly using the memory, so I’d need to reboot to gain that memory back.
I’ve a 2600k and a GTX980. I’ll try to change swap settings back to auto.
I’ve had this on my computer. When it crashes, check your task manager → performance → non-pooled memory. If it’s at 99% you probably have the same problem as I had.
My fix was going into Origin → bf4 settings and changing the executable to the 32bit one.
I think that did the trick, thanks. Well either that or using 32bit
If you’re using Mantle, try switching to DirectX
