So, after getting sick of blizzard's money making schemes in Diablo 3, as well as catching a break from my work schedule, I decided to hop on good ol' skyrim for some dragon slaying adventures today
for some reason, I decided to also run MSI afterburner and monitor everything while I was playing for fun (being on this forum has developed interesting habits for me ) long story short, throughout most of my gaming session on a single 1920x1080 monitor, my video memory usage was hovering between 2000 and 2100MBs. btw, I do have a second monitor hooked up, just not gaming on it.
Anyways, while I do have a 7970, so this does not present a problem, but my question is, how can Nvidia ever think that a mere 2GB is sufficient for their flagship card? also, are things like the 6GB of memory on sapphire's up coming 7970 vapor-x and toxic edition really not as ridiculous as they seem?
P.S. I do have the HD textures pack and I was running 8XAA
