Turn off Resizable Bar if you have a 8gb vram card

[Jorge Cortano]

I have a 3070 was having problems with textures on high, frame drops and stuttering, i test a lot of things, but turn off Re-size bar was the solution, somehow it was using like 400 mb of vram

thats crazy. I had a hitching/stuttering problem with last of us pt 1 remake on here...my fps is locked and even on the pause screen it would be like 120fps locked then every 5 seconds on the dot it would drop to 112/113. and when you are playing its VERY noticable and annoyuing...I almost returned the game but i did a little more research and digging on the internet and found a post someone said turn off Smart Access Memory (SAM) and i was able to just turn it off in the AMD Adrenaline Software and it fixed it! LMAO! Im on a 3700X/6700XT

I was having weird issues with ReBAR too. I upgraded from Zen 3 to Zen 5 and despite having a much faster CPU I was having intermittent issues with frequent large frametime spikes that didn't happen with the old CPU. Removing the game from the ReBAR whitelist seems to have fixed that, and I'm nowhere near running out of VRAM.

I'll have to give this a try.
I noticed I needed to run Medium textures. RTX 3070 at 1440 DLSS quality. Base game could get away with High in many locations but the DLC Burning shores virtually always needed medium.

Well the problem came back later, despite me turning ReBAR off, so I guess that wasn't actually my problem...

Maybe there's an issue with the way rebar works on Nvidia because on my 6650XT rebar and SAM actually increased my FPS by probably 1-2 and the game feels quite a bit smoother now.
Hope it gets fixed

ReBAR is really hit and miss in general, it'll make some games run faster and smoother, and others will start stuttering or even lose performance. That seems to be the case with both Nvidia (they only enable it on a whitelist to avoid problems, but issues still make it through, like Borderlands 3) and AMD. Since disabling ReBAR for this game didn't actually fix the problem I'm suspecting now that DirectStorage is actually the culprit, since many people have managed to alleviate stuttering problems by either updating or disabling it. Off to try that now...

There's a diskcacheenabler mod that does that, on nexusmods.
I did it and I still get stutter sooometimes, but it's not often enough to bother me, and doesn't ruin my fights or anything.
Though, I don't think stuttering was an issue for me from the get go.

Yeah I tried running that for the last few hours and while I didn't have any issues with frametime spikes during general gameplay, it made traversal stutter significantly worse compared to DirectStorage, at least in Burning Shores.
