Why GFX card with more RAM?

[vanelle]

Well this game does not run very good at a ATI 4890 1GB.
Medium/low with stutters @ -30 fps. (above land, sea is a lillte bit better.)

Although my card is bottlenecking my system, good to know CLOD does need more vRAM.

(Appearantly my fist post)

I assume the graphics rewrite the development is currently undertaking will address some of these problems. To what degree is anyones guess.

The sim uses over 2.4 gb of vram when I play online at times @ 1080p with all settings high except ssao (fps drop near ground). That being said a 3gb card might not work all that well unless the rest of the system is up to the task.

Just as Chvias said the sim needs optimizing...if you put 1 plane on one of the small online maps with nothing else and try to take off and look at the dust your wheel kicks up it drops the FPS to single figures.

Did it for you http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...&postcount=116

If we keep our feedback in one place it will be easier for us to track fixes or failures and keep the devs accounted for them. All feedback in any other threads can be just lost without any use unfortunately.

S!

I can tell you within days how the new AMD 7970HD runs CoD It has showed some exceptional performance so very eager to test it on CoD

Great news! Could you please test if 3 blue horizon lines bug exists on it (shows at certain altitude) and a landscape stripes bug on the border of land and water.

S!

Will put the card through it's paces for sure New drivers for it just came out too.

I get the horizon problem also and im on Nvidia.. i dont think its just an ATI thing for this bug.

I think most people just dont notice it... you dont unless you look for it specifically

I have never heard it happens on nVidia It was present only on HD 69xx series till 2 parches ago, then was fixed and came back in the last patch. This is what I read on the forums. HD4xxx or HD5xxx series did not have this bug.

Could you post a screenshot? If it is the same bug maybe it is worth reporting it as possible area for improvement here http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...=28341&page=12
