Raytracing greatly pushes up the VRAM demand, 3070 owners are having problems in Doom Eternal and are having to reduce the texture pool size otherwise their framerate is in the 30s. I have to reduce the texture pool size at 1440P with RT on otherwise I get random stutters on a 3080. Whether this is a game bug or a sign of things to come is unknown because the game's VRAM usage estimate is very inaccurate.

10GB vram enough for the 3080? Discuss..

I'm not noticing any stutters at 1440p/3080 everything maxed. There is a new hotfix, see it that helps.
Will give it a go, I wonder whether it's a Resizeable Bar/HAGS problem. These features can cause stuttering even in games in which they are not enabled.
Do you have Resizeable Bar and/or HAGS enabled?
Thanks, I'll try disabling HAGS maybe that's the issue.
Definetly worthwhile turning off Microsoft hardware setting along with game mode if you're using it. From reading around, they seem to cause problems.
Also, I use nvclean installer for drivers, might make a difference since less nvidia overhead and no telemetry bs going on.

Doom Eternal Ray Tracing Analysis - AMD vs Nvidia!
Interesting to see 8GB cards can't run full max settings with RT on at 4k settings due to VRAM on a game that is really not that demanding. So maybe in the near future 10GB cards get hit by this too?

What? The 4k benchmark show a 3070 (8GB) beating a 6900XT (16GB) card even though the 3070 isn't a 4k card.
Watch the video fully, they had to turn down settings for the 4K tests to allow the 8GB cards to work.

Again, the 3070 (8GB) isn't a 4k card, yet still manages to beat the 6900XT (16GB) at 4k. The game uses 7849MB of VRAM at 1440p without DLSS. With DLSS Quality it uses 7649.
Running a 3070 at 4k is makes as much sense as trying to run a 3080 at ~6k. That's what the 3090 is for.
I don't agree with that a 3070 is basically a 2080Ti performance level card with 3GB less vram and better RT performance. With a title like this it is 4K able easily with the power it has. Like saying a 2080Ti is not a 4K card.
The only limiting factor is the VRAM on the 3070 with this title at 4K with RT on, not the performance the GPU can give, VRAM sadly is causing it to not be able to run at 4K maxed out with RT on. Where a 2080Ti will run it fully maxed out and RT on due to having more VRAM.
3070 vs 2080Ti (3070 stock FE and the 2080Ti is an OC model as he didn't have a 2080Ti FE, so the 2080Ti results should be a little lower really if using a FE 2080Ti to keep it fair)

It's still half the price of a 6900XT and the fact that it gives higher fps by lowering one setting bodes well I think.
Ohh it does really well compared to such an expensive card. I don't really want to start an AMD vs Nvidia thing but personally I think the Nvidia cards this gen are a lot better value and much better features. BUT we all buy what we like and depends on the games/applications we play/use that favour either AMD or Nvidia.
Don't know why people keep assuming that a 3070 is a 4k card.... it isn't.
Also, a 3070 is comparable to a 6800/6700xt in terms of overall perf./cost (not factoring in dlss).....
This.

So a 2080Ti is now not a 4K card then ? Last gens top dog .. the 3070 has same gpu grunt as a 2080Ti and better RT on the 3070. The 3070 is a very good 4K able card and remember games are tested maxed out on his reviews, so can be turned down a little to get the frame rates you want and even maxed out the games are doing really well on frame rates.
Check the video:-

Try running a modern title on a 2080Ti at 4k. CP2077 or Assassin's Creed Valhalla? Your not getting 60 FPS.
