Question Large Page File for Memory

[Bannable]

So today I was looking around and just went under dxdiag randomly and noticed where it said, "Page file: 18799MB used, 18757MB available." The problem I see here is that I can not find a way to fix this, and I don't know why it is doing this. I was looking closer into it and noticed it says 16346 MB shared memory under my Vega 64. This leaves about 2 GB of memory left which I understand being used for paging, so I would like to know how I can solve this problem of half of my ram being taken up, as well as why this is happening and if it is important to have a large page file. Thanks!

Have you checked your Virtual Memory settings in System Properties?

My page file is only 4864 allocated. Could it be it is supposed to be at 18799 MB under the page file in dxdiag and I am just getting worried over nothing, or is that not right?

Just check in "System" to see how much usable RAM you have.

Yeah this is kinda weird cause I have never had this happen before, but I am not getting the parenthesis with usable, it just says 32 GB.

If you do not get any usable number in parenthesis, that means all your RAM is usable. If you are not noticing any problems while using your computer, i would not worry about it.

Ok, I use a bunch of chrome tabs and I just notice it'll get to like 10 GB of ram being used and it's at 80% at top but I haven't found any problems. Thanks for helping with my not so existant problem though lol!
