Hi guyz, this is my first post and I want to use this for your recommendation

My problem is that I have FPS problems sometimes in some maps (I am new in PR so I don't know map names lol ) And my settings was set about medium , but I heard that if u set them higher the game will work smooth. It's weird but it worked well compared to before I think.

To keep this short I will give you my system specs and wait for your recommendations

The problem with PR is that requires a good CPU rather than a solid GPU.
On my old PC I had the same, even worse problems with a similar CPU to yours and a good GPU and ram and everything else where I could barely play the game on 15 FPS.
Also, your page file seems to be really low, have you changed the values by yourself? IMO it should be at least equal to your RAM memory.

You can also try turning VSYNC on, it gives a more stable FPS to me for some reason. If you still get FPS problems when there's a lot of smoke and dust effect, you can try turning down the effects setting as well.

Page file = RAM*1.5

Turn off MSAA - antialinsing, lower terrain and effects quality. Defragment.

Just for your information..

I used RAMDisk a long time ago but I formatted my notebook later. Could it be the reason for page file ?

BTW I m not good at hardware knowledge

Thanks for your quick response

This is an easy tutorial how to change your page file in Win 8: Change the size of virtual memory - Windows Help

You should make sure that the page file is AT LEAST the same amount as RAM memory, but it is recommended that you set your page file to 1.5 x Your RAM Memory. So in your case, that would be 4096 x 1.5 = 6144 MB

I'm about the same as you and as bad as you so no problems there.

Thanks mate ! I changed it to 1.5x now. I know it won't effect my gameplay but still good to know that it is normal now

Thanks everyone for your helps too!
