The game has such a small size, would putting the whole game into RAM would give crazy amounts of fps?

Excuse me, did you miss your Computer Science classes?

Nope, but if you install the game on an SSD it will speed up loading times. Only for you though, still gotta wait for your teammates to load. If your fps is below 60 then upgrading GPU can increase it.

Someone doesn't understand what RAM is lol.

Can you explain professor? Because faster RAM gives more fps. More ram also gives more fps.

You can't install programs into RAM. Also, this game isn't RAM heavy, it's CPU heavy.

No, RAM does not do either of those things.

RAM is basically binary, you either have enough for the game/application or you don't; which is why having extra RAM beyond what's needed doesn't do anything for you.

Just look at benchmarks on youtube, this is a fact.

I think you're confused because better CPU/GPU setups typically come with more RAM.

There are some VERY specific games like Star Citizen that are RAM bound but that's an exception.

Also, you do know there is a difference between RAM and VRAM right?

Oh my god, just go to youtube and check benchmarks, same setups with faster/more ram gives a lot more fps, why do you not know this?

The game is already put in RAM when you run it. All games are.

If a game uses 8GB of RAM there will be no FPS gain even if you went to 32 GB.

It doesn't need more, there is nothing to load into that extra space.

If you only had 4GB, the game would crash when it ran out of memory.

In case of bigger games it's only parts. I just thought the game is so small, they could code it to run from ram only.

This isn't true.

The only time the game improved in performance was when I updated my CPU. That's because this game is CPU intensive. It is not RAM intensive.

That isn't how programming works.

This is also untrue, games which use 8gb will run slightly faster on 16gb
