Thank you

VRAM is doubled at lower resolutions too.

I went from ~600 VRAM per game before the big patch to 1300-1600mb at 1600x900

using a rtx 3060 ti, it has 8gb vram, looks like I’m cooked if what you said is true.

Same at 1920 x 1080 my vram was around 600mb now its around 1200 not sure why

I am having the same issue. The game is using all of my VRAM and it is going up to 30gm of VRAM and I only have 16 and when I load into the match it looks like models are not rendered, I do not see my gun and other players are only orbs.

I have literally everything set to low or off. I play in 1080p with 16gb of VRAM, 64GB of RAM. Everything seemed normal like a week ago and when I logged in today my VRAM usage spiked tremendously.

Same here.

Thought they fixed some performance issues with the increase in vram but I wouldn’t say I’ve noticed any.

Probably stuff under the hood or a bug?
