Nope, in 1440P also. I've seen my 1070 get upto 4.7GB VRAM in Doom, maxed out.

1440p here 4GB only two games so far have used more than 4GB for me and that's Tombraider and Gta5 rest has been around 3.5

Doom on ultra @1440p only uses 3.1Gb for me that is without nightmare mind you.

Isn't the DF test done at 2560X1440?? :confused:

shankly1985 · 13 Jul 2016 at 21:54

I seen a benchmark other day think it was gta5 480 vs something and at same settings the 480 was using lower vram. Will after dig it out.

Be a short review as well, as theres only Doom using it so far.

is there any point in buying a 4 gb card in 2016?

No there isnt....so why do some Nvidia users try and persuade people to buy a reduced price/Secondhand 970 over a new 8GB RX480?

Hmmmm....I wonder?

shankly1985 · 13 Jul 2016 at 21:58

Sorry it was Farcry, just goes to show different GPUs use the vram different.

Thats got nothing to do with the amount of vram.

Exactly.

Also DOOM is the only real game running on Vulkan...

You can force nightmare settings on a Fury and it runs just fine. At least I know it does at 1440p.

Literally zero difference anyway, just some random shadow detail that virtually unnoticeable. Just a setting that sucks up a lot of vram for zero difference.

Looks like that latest/recent patch makes a liar of my last post - can now run it fine on my 780 albeit a bit of load stutter now and again and around 15% framerate drop from ultra. On the release version of the game it was killing any GPU that didn't have 5+GB VRAM completely.

Bus interface load goes from like 5-6% with ultra to 52% with Nightmare lol.

Doom3 had a setting for ultra detail that used a whopping 512mb of ram. That ran fine on my 256mb card as well but yeah very little difference. It's more of a gimmik tbh.

Prefer to see games being developed including dx12 instead of this patching it in caper that seems to lead to issues with performance, i remember some games had dx11 patched in and it caused problems.

DiscoDave · 13 Jul 2016 at 22:26

Six question marks really necessary?

That game as good as it is, still runs DX9 as far as i am aware.
