Just let the system manage it, the days of fretting over how it will effect how your PC runs died long ago.

Correct. The last time I had an issue was years ago with diablo2 fussing because I had set the value myself instead of letting windows manage it.

Good advice and I always run the swap file on a drive other than the primary drive the OS is installed on

I always let the system manage it but, I put it on a separate HDD from my system drive. However, if you're still using IDE HDDs, you have to actually put it on a HDD that not on the same channel as the OS HDD to benefit. With SATA, it doesn't matter.

I made a partiton at the begining of my RAID0 volume with 3200Mb space and I hold a fixed 3072Mb pagefile there.
