Sorry, on a 14900KF with 4080 OC with 16GB of DDR6 VRAM, same issue now. It's now 2024.
Which cache folder. There are only like a zillion, some local, some in Documents, some in User, some in AppData, some in ProgramData, some in OneDrive. Windows 11 is SO much fun. It's literally trying to upload all my data to OneDrive so it can say my 1TB of online storage is full and get me to buy more. Not only that, since ISP upload speeds are a fraction of download speeds, it's locked my computer up with 120kbps uploads so I can't turn it off for days, or have to wait for five years for all those gigabytes/terabytes of data to "sync" to OneDrive.
Who ever thought of this cockamamie system?! Windows11 is, still, 50 years later, primarily designed for business people who do 2k Word documents and 4k spreadsheets. Anything beyond that scares its little task-switching (yes, despite all the drivel, it's STILL only a really fast task-switching OS!) head to death and it barfs.
Happy 2024! These problems will never be solved! I might sound like I'm drunk but I'm not; I'm only frustrated, and it ain't EA that's at fault. I have 2500 hrs. into BF2042 on my PS5, and it's run great the whole time. Now, on this new soupie-doupie computer? Can't even stand up, it's like an old man who can't recognize quantum computing is almost here.
Ah and as to DirectX12, yes, it apparently needs 42 TB of DDR8 VRAM to run yer average game now. OH Well. Sorry, EA: please help the whole industry give up on gaming on the PC, which is what the security "xperts" at MS have been wanting since, oh, 1998.
Yours Truly,
The Genius
