Battlefield 3 Video Memory Usage

[LtMatt]

Almost up to 2Gb.

Bandar desert is a beautiful map.

What seting are you using for you vram to be so high Matt? Have you overclocked your GPU ram?

Full ultra with 4xaa @1080p.

I have to say i think the new Armoured Kill DLC maps require more VRAM because they are massive. I don't recall seeing this high usage on the stock maps, maybe 1.7-1.8.

What is your TS server name matt?

You need to visit our website and join our forum to get our team speak info and password, we don't post the details outside of there.

Or it could be down to you having the available VRAM, the maps being bigger might be why they are just utliising this space...

Not a set in stone requirement...that, my friend, is conjecture.

Anyway, according to MSI i use 2.3GB....pointless thread.

Isn't that what i just said?

If you don't like the thread, you know what you can do, stay out.

Pointless reply.

Very nice Kraap,

How do you find the fps with 4xaa?

How long were you playing for when you recorded these and which map and player size was it if you don't mind me asking?

 

[LtMatt]

Single player
This is near the beginning of the game with the sniper on the roof.
Im not very good at FPS games so I don't tend to last that long.

Single player? Blimey, don't think ive ever seen it that high on single player.

You mean MSAAx4

When I last ran FRAPS with every thing maxed out including the above it was about 110fps sometines higher. This was at the beginning of the game where you get out the APC onto the street and also a little later in the carpark.

Is there a way to use FRAPS to record min/avg/max ?

As I said above Im not very good at FPS but with this game I will be getting a lot of practice when I get the time.

Not sure about fraps, i use afterburner to do my screenshots and videos, i think that has the feature you require.

How much vram in multi player? Do you have the Armoured Kill maps?

Fair play. I just had half hour spare and thought I would come have a chat and slate AMD

I will sign up though.

Furry muff.

I hope its not just to start a vram debate, i've had just about enough of people going on about that in this thread.

I just like to compare (vram usage that is )

Nope I don't have it installed I don't even know what it is
I'll try playing some more tomorrow to see if it happens again.
