    Vram Leaking

    The game seems to have a Vram leak issue, because after monitoring Vram usage (on my 1080Ti 11GB), it climbs up slowly until the Vram is filled up and the game ends up stuttering. I presume a beefy 1080Ti with its 11GB is not enough for 1440p Resolution and the HD texture pack? also using the latest Nvidia drivers.. anyone else want to monitor their Vram usage and report here, cause it's not normal since the game shows 4-5GB maximum being used in the graphics menu.

    Thanks for letting us know about this issue. How long does this take for the Vram to get up to 11GB? Does restarting the game reset the issue?

    I have same video card specs, my game crashes consistently within the five to ten minute time period of playing, regardless of what I do (I've been through all of the FAQ and support stuff, and quite frankly, I'm getting tired of this). There is something wrong with the way this game manages memory. I can't play it on "normal" graphic settings without having the same crash within the same time period. My rig played Far Cry 5 without any issues, and plays Metro Exodus on ultra settings perfectly. Frustrating....

    I just tested this (but got distracted because I ended up doing a mission), but every time I fast traveled, it used more and more VRAM. I was using over 10GB after fast traveling about 6 times. I used the HD texture pack, had everything maxed out and I'm running at 3440x1440.

    Hey Korruptor1, thanks for testing this out.
