I'm asking because I'm thinking of buying a gtx 580 with 3 GB VRam.

Not unless u use extreme reselution and/or multiple monitors. Thats what lots of VRam is for.

If u run 1680x1050 on a 22 inch lcd 3 GB wont do one bit of differance.


What im trying to say, i guess, is that as far as i know the game in itselfe has nothing to do with it. (correct me if im wrong)

I was thinking that the more VRAM, the more stuff could be loaded in and so less laggs and popups.

I'm gonna play with 1920x1080 on a 27" monitor

As far as i know: the higher res./higher settings/multiple monitors = more ram is good.

But nothing that Oleg, on his end, decides within the game (as far as i know)

But Oleg knows how big the textures are
Has AA AF anything to do with Ram amount?

I dont think so. From what ive read the amount of ram you need is driven by what resolution you want to run. I plan on running on a 19" monitor at 1024 x 768 with hi AA and AF settings. This will likely look as good as most higher res settings but take less fps hit.

I can't wait to see pictures of Map/ Terrain editor. I looked old WIP pictures and there was pictures of user made mountain. I'm praying and hoping that we can make even small Dogfight maps.

Battle OF Britain is one of my favourite airbattles ever, but i also love to make maps of other fronts and as a Finn i believe that it will take years before i can hope to see official East Front addon of Gulf Of Finland.

Finlands war against USSR wasn't the largest airwars, but if you look at the list of Fighter Aces, you find that Finns were second best right after Germans.

Waiting is soon over...But i need a new rig.
I have Nvidia 3d Vision glasses + LG 3D Display+ Nvidia 8800Gt and playing in " Real" 3d enviroment should be cool. But i need better PC now.....LOL
