ASUS GTX TITAN 6GB under performing.

[Dmooney]

I am playing a game called Rust (unoptimised alpha on steam) but having upgraded from a GTX 670 to the tian I feel like my performance is worse.

FPS is 25-30 and memory clock is maxed and the memory usage is pretty high too. (running windowed 1920x1080) on a 3440x1440 ultrawide.

Here is a screenshot of the current settings.

Your RAM usage is maxed out, that's why it doesn't feel like the performance is there. Although, for a game like that, I would think that 16GB would be enough. This might be a case of high uptime. When was the last time you restarted your computer? Do you leave it on all the time?

Nope I only turn it on and off only to use it except for the weekends where i'll leave it on for the day.
It shows I have vram of 4GB should that not be 6GB?

I'm only going off the chart that was included there, it shows the RAM is being maxed out.

Sorry I meant it as a question.
If the card is a 6GB card can I set Vram to 6GB?

It needs some for the operating system, so no, you won't be able to get a full 6GB out of it.
