Firstly lets have a look at what happens if you have anything that hasnt cleared out of memory properly when you start the game.
So...
1GB video cards use Medium Preset...
and slowly turn up a few settings until you notice stuttering.
1.5GB cards use High Preset...
and slowly turn up a few settings until you notice stuttering.
2GB+ Video cards use Very high (max)..
you may still notice occasional stuttering because you will sometimes still run out of Vram unless you have 2.5GB or more.

Good test, but I would not completely agree with your conclusions.
I red some answers from BF3 developer about VRAM usage (I don't play that)
and he was saying that 1.5 GB of VRAM is enough everything maxed out, high AA and AF at 1980 resolution.He mentioned if there is more availeble VRAM driver will load some more stuff that is not realy needed.
Sorry I don't have link, conversation was from twitter on some web page.
I'm not shure if it is the same with CloD, but I'm using 1 GB card almoust everything maxed out (trees low, building details medium) at 1680 res.
No stutters, with lot of planes arround shootin at me ), high or low,lot of flak arrround.On 1980 resolution only 5-10 FPS less.
