Gaming & Large Files
Posted: Tue Oct 02, 2012 7:46 pm
Good Day,
I have been using FC for some time now (~8 months) and it's pretty good to have as a write cache for my slow HDD, not so good for the reading ones (bad config probably).
The question i have now it's that some games have large files (like Guild Wars 2 have a 15gbs files
), I want to know if I set the cache to 4gbs Read/write (or any other for that matter) it's going to be usefull, since the cache it's way smaller than the cached file.
Config:
FancyCache Disk 0.8
- Cache: 4096
- Block: 128k
- LFU-R
- Read/Write
- Defer Write
- Overcome HDD C1 Issue
Phenom II x4 B50
8gbs 1333 ram
Some suggestions:
- A Log file with the "Performance Statics"
- "CPU Usage" in the Perfomance Statics Menu
- A PDF manual with every option explained in extend and some examples configuration.
- A floating like gadged (but no a "windows vista/7/8" gadged) ~256x256 with some info (most relevant/selectable)
- A version for home user (price wise)
- "fund beta" Pay now get full later.
