My rig had 32GB of RAM and had been running 14GBs of it dedicated for Primocache to use. Within the first month of using the program and seeing all the incredible numbers from my benchmarks I was ecstatic with the software and most pleased so I purchased the program for $30. I've used Primocache for 8 months straight because of recommendations from others here on this forum. I'd also be interested in building a system to use this much like optane is used for Steam gaming quite extensively to good effect, I think pairing primocache with a large 6tb+ main drive and a 128 or 250gb NVME m.2 SSD might be a better use case for the NVME than even installing the OS or games to it.Īnyhow, I'll add screenshots below.
So, I'm sure some here have more appropriate setups than me, but for my use case at least it seems well worth the $29 investment for the license, especially since my platform doesn't have a similar feature. For instance in League of Legends players I know on faster computers would be at 30-40% loaded before I showed any activity, but I would reach 100% with or before them (getting faster on successive runs as the 'lag' got lessened, as I suspect it would on a more modern CPU and DDR4 RAM). The seat of the pants feel though is kind of mixed, though I'm not on the greatest hardware what it seemed like to me is game loads, getting into a match, map, or zone for the first time would feel lag, like there was a 100-200 ms delay before the loading began, but then the load itself would be magnificently fast. What I noted was about a 10% increase in items that weren't cached in the Level 2 cache, such as new updates being applied etc due to the cache now write later feature, but the increases could be dramatic on things like frequently played games, such as League of Legends from my SSD, and steam games from the WD Green. I gave Primocache 4gb of system managed (shared) memory, typical usage was more like 2gbĤ0gb of my SSD as non-destructive level 2 cache (99% hit rate after 60 days)Īnd all of my drives are being accelerated by this setup. So I set about to test it myself.Ģ40gb Sandisk SSD (SSD Plus model) on Sata2 3gb
After watching an LTT video on Optane vs StoreMI I caught on to his preview of how Primocache actually outperformed them all.
