Want to change my cache location from C drive to my ramdisk.

in previous version it was:

1. about:config 2. browser.cache.disk.parent_directory 3. change path

but browser.cache.disk.parent_directory no longer exists in v.63.

Thanks for your help

Note that this pref has never existed by default on the about:config page, you always had to create a new String pref.
