I'm currently playing Vampyr and the consistent frame drops from 62 - <40 really take me out of the experience, I'm currently looking for any purchase that could increase my performance for not only this game but for other recent titles to be released.

The game has a minimum requirement of 2GB on Win7, but the recommended for Win10 is 16GB, R5 1600, and a AMD R9 390, so more ram at the very least.

Extra RAM will reduce the amount of pagefile the game needs to run, and so improve the speeds.

If you havent already, set your pagefile to a static (custom) figure of 16GB after upgrading your RAM; that will also improve consistency slightly.

I'm not well versed in Overclocking, if I was to do it it would be my very first time.

I've heard that the X series Wraith Cooler will be fine to use with the overclocked CPU, could you add your thoughts to this?

And I will rectify the RAM problem immediately. Thank you.

How would I go about setting a custom Pagefile size?
