VRAM Usage overcommitted

[Mr Cuddlesworth]

Running a GeForce GTX 650 Graphics card. Telling my "VRAM is overcommitted 1971/971".

Can this be helped or am I a gonner?

No, you're way below the minimum. This game isn't gonna run on a video card with less than 2gb.

You can try it but I expect you will get poor performance.

if only they listed requirements for games...

and too late for a refund for you to so money down the drain until you buy a decent video card. hopefully the rest of you pc is worth putting decent card in.

Yeah. I was planning on getting a decent card soon. The purchase for the game was kind of pre-emptive and was just wondering whether there was a way I could run it with this card decently.

That card's actually within-spec. They just didn't do a good job coming up with the specs, or keeping to them consistently :-\

Set texture resolution to Low, and try to ignore that warning. Turning off GameWorks settings with the word "Interactive" in them (these add PhysX memory requirements) will also slightly keep your memory requirements in-check.

how is 1gb gtx 650 "within spec"? it is insufficient for this game as well as some others in every metric.

1971 MiB of VRAM is not 1 GiB.

oops my bad

[Kaldaien]

Err, it's my bad. The text says 1971/971.

You're absolutely right :P It's just a happy coincidence the top number is exactly 1000 greater than the bottom I guess. I read that as 1971/1971 originally.

[trek554]

yeah its easy to misread that

How much VRAM does your card have? 2GB is the absolute BARE minimum for this game, with everything set to low.

I have AMD R7 250 with 2 GB VRAM, and put all settings on "Low", and resolution 1440x900 have 14-20 fps...

This game runs easily on a 1gb vram card, many are playing on such cars and don't have such error, no crashes etc. But this game is a lottery, you need luck.
