Mass Effect: Andromeda memory usage

I've just been trying the 10hour demo of Mass Effect: Andromeda and I had everything maxed out, after about 1/2 hr as one of the cut scenes was ending a windows memory error popped up and crashed the game.

I have 32GB of memory where 10gb is used as a RAMDrive so was shocked when I got the out of memory error. I then reduced the Ramdrive to 5GB and it worked ok. I took a photo of the resource monitor for memory ME:A was using between 14-15.5 Gb :eek:

it would appear that recommended specs are as follows

it doesnt explain why it crashed though as I still had approx 22Gb left after the RAMDrive.

Bad sector in ram? When you get above a curtain level it crashes. Reducing the Ramdrive made sure you don't hit that sector? Just a guess. Try running a mem test over night.
It hits ALL of your ram. If it passes, its just a glitch :)
 
Ran Memtest while at work for 8 hours and no errors whatsoever. I was not aware of the huge demand on the RAM before i ran the game otherwise I would've probably not created this thread in the first place. It also makes me reduce the size of my RAMDrive which I set at 10Gb years ago simply for converting and burning 8Gb dual layer DVD's
