What's sucking the VRAM?
I have a RTX 3080TI with 12GB of vram. When I start the demo, the default setting set to my card, is above the limit that I have. So I have to mess with lowering stuff but there are only a few things that make a dent or lower it to the expect vram range.

So why is it so high? There should be no reason this game needs that much vram to run.

3080ti here and workin great. Lover textures for lover vram usage. For me says that will use 14gb, but working great at 4k textures.

If you can to exchange 3080ti for 3090 that would help. In Serbia 3090 is 100 euro more expensive than 3080ti. Second hand.

Yeah vram usage is insanely high and lowering the settings doesnt really change anything, thats weird, runs very well tho, but might encounter crashes at some point

There is only 12gb on the card so you literally breaking your card by exceeding the max vram usage. About 2 gb just goes to your OS. So I not seeing why the game needs that much vram, to get to a decent quality.

Yeah that's what got me worried. I should have atleast 3gb wiggle room of vram, but this game is sucking it dry?

12 gb in 2025 is the bare minimun for 1080p medium

Might be a bug, controllers seems bugged aswell (at least to me) its showing keyboard input instead of my Dualsense and trying to fix it with steam input or not doesnt change a thing either so eeeeeeh

You cannot break the card by going over VRAM usage, its simply swapped into slower system RAM.
Vram view in options probably bugged because even on lowest game want from you 8gb)

I know, but its work. No stuters, and loading from hdd (server grade but hdd). Would change 3080ti for 3090 but my 3080 is havin custom fans. Bought with broken fans, then changed for some fans that i have around. In is cheap for resel.

it uses 11gb vram on medium vram 1080p if you have anything below 3080 dont bother buying it

It is a bug like in RE 2 and RE 4.

I still need to mess with the settings because I ran into some freezing during loading cutscenes and autosaves. But when in the game, it looks pretty good.

It seems like environment detail and character detail are your vram suckers. Which I have t environments set to medium and character detail to high. Having ultra just sucks the vram up too much.

I mean I didn't even have this much when I played RE2 remake. I still had the 3gb wiggle room to have a smooth experience.
