So since the day I got my PC(Little over a year), I've had this problem with the paging file. The paging file would constantly make my disc at 100% usage all time. Making my PC insanely slow. I found out how to fix this problem, which is disabling the paging file. But, a month ago I bought GTA 5 and heres are where I got a big problem. When I play GTA 5, at random I get a Low memory warning, makes GTA crash and I have to restart my PC cause it black screens.
Now I went and enabled the paging file for a few hours and played GTA with absolute no problems(was very laggy), but my disc usage was always at 100%. I know that if I left my paging file on it would destroy my HDD over time. I do understand that this is a memory leak and is possible that this is purely GTA. But I've also seen it happen with Minecraft and Euro Truck Sim 2 in the past. Not sure if it was the same thing as I do not have these games anymore.
I loaded various amounts to the paging file each time I turned it on (8GB-20GB)
PC Specs that are relavent:
8GB RAM
GTX 750 Ti 2048MB VRAM
1TB HDD
i5 4440 @ 3.10GHz
