DX11, 1GB VRAM means what?

[himmatsj]

It says need 1GB VRAM DX11, times two VRAM if wanted it for recommended?

Does it mean what? I has a GTX Seven Hundred Five Zero.

Why cannot they tell us card name straight? Like this don't know what means, and OK to works or not.

Vram is video ram, or more accurately 1 gig of GDDR5 on your GTX 750....don't spell that out next time.

it can also mean anything from a GTX 650 and up. but it's better to have a 2GB GDDR5 capable card like a 660 or a 760. more Vram=more power.

1 GB of VRAM is better than listing all the cards outright.

Ok. I just play Thief 60fps, and Watch Dog 45fps. With medium or the low 1080p settings, how many per second frame I getting from this game?

[Lockerd]

on lowest settings i'd say you'll get around 45-60 fps, medium a solid 45.

it's all a moot point really, until they release more information, and have adequate driver support then for now it's all just speculation.

That is how specs are usually listed out. Sometimes they give a card name out, many times not. Thats how it is.
In this case, you want to make sure that the card you have has at least 1 GB or more of the GDDR5 memory (a.k.a. VRAM). And also that is DX11 compatible, which any modern card (like youres) should be.
Oh, and like that other guy said: don't spell out your cards name, that just makes it confusing for the people reading. Numbers is all we use, so you could just say the "GTX 750".

More VRAM does not equal more power. Maybe in the sense of needing more watts to function?

both that and more power for the game to run on, if you have a display device hooked up through the video card then the 1gb of VRAM becomes 700Mb of VRAM, so I generalize it as more potential and more availible VRAM to utilize.

and yea more power to run.

maybe because nvidia isnt the only option out there for vgas.

Have in mind that this game is based on CryEngine, even if it is a console port, CryEngine tends to be demanding on PCs if not optimized (like this will be imo) 1GB VRAM probably specifies the RAM you need to output the game at 720p and 30fps and above (depending on your actual GPU)
In general, the more resolution, texture filter quality and antialiasing you use, the higher the RAM on your VGA is taxed, while your GPU provides the computing power to shading and lighting processing.
You should be able to play this 1080p60 with 2GB RAM on a high end card from 2012 (Geforce 670, etc), 3GB to be sure and reach 4k (is anyone even uses that) at anything higher than 30fps.

Works since 750 supports DX11 and even factory made 750s have more vram. :p Remember DX11 means Windows 7 or higher. XP doesn't support it and I think Vista only supports DX10 which noone ever uses anyway.

Vista supports DX11 after either service pack 2 or 3, I can't remember exactly.

There is a 2 GB of VRAM version of the 750 Ti (which I own), just saying.
