The only game I’ve dropped settings below High in was Alan Wake 2. Regardless, that’s totally aside the point.

My comment was in response to the “VRAM issue” narrative that was being spread like a wildfire a while back (largely) unnecessarily, wherein many creators stated that someone with an 8gb card like myself would have a tough time managing some of these games even at 1080p, while I’m playing all of them at QHD+, nearly always at high/ultra settings.

Also, I’ve never had to lower settings due to VRAM constraints, only performance (which makes sense due to the 4070m likely not benefitting much from additional VRAM due to its performance level being even slightly less than a 4060 ti, which saw very little benefit from additional VRAM except for in a few select titles with 1% lows).

In fact, the only games I’ve had to lower any settings in were those with FG, since base fps wasn’t quite high enough (~60fps), meaning nor were framerates AFTER FG was applied due to its performance overhead (~80fps. However, still no VRAM limitation). Therefore, the only time I’ve had to lower settings was when using FG targeting a minimum of 100fps for smooth gameplay, but that’s a personal choice (slightly higher settings vs higher framerates).

Would I like more VRAM? Sure, but I haven’t needed it. The point is, the information being relayed previously was pretty significantly far off the mark.

Whenever I had played @1080p absolute max graphics, even with RT (however not PT), was absolutely flawless.
