We recently saw how it was possible to install Crysis 3 in the graphics memory of an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 , which has a total of 24 GB of GDDR6X memory, and for practical purposes it was all functional that it can be a RAMDisk. However, on that occasion, there was enough space to have the game and run it at the same time.
On this occasion, as we can see in the YouTube video below these lines, has been Windows 10 the piece of software that has managed to fit in the graphics memory of a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 of 6GB , something that already leaves us with a quarter of the memory we would have in an RTX 3090.
From here, we see how you can create a 5GB RAMdisk to later install Windows 10 in a virtual machine , something that, although it has been possible, has brought great challenges with it, so it has not been at all as simple as installing Crysis 3.
Obviously, the greatest difficulty has been l to get Windows 10 fit in less than 5GB of disk space , something for which an unmodified version of 2020 has been used, which has subsequently been deployed manually since the Windows installer was not able to work with so little space.
