Couldn't think of anywhere better to put this.

So far Im running a custom config but I'm kind of curious as to whether I can make crysis use more ram than it already does. It's pulling around 1.8gigs currently but as I have 4 I am wondering if it's possible.

With doom 3 & quake 4 you could change some settings in the config to pull more than it required which usually turned into better fps. Anybody know?

Nope. By default, only 2GB of RAM is allocated to programs, with the remaining 2GB reserved for system use (on a 4GB system on 32-bit windows). In short: By itself, Crysis hogs all the RAM reserved for user apps.
