[SOLVED] Far Cry New Dawn does not utilise all VRAM

[PaddyBee]

Hey guys,

I have a laptop with a GTX 1660 Ti with 6GB VRAM. Tried running New Dawn today but it ran like total garbage. Checked Video settings and saw that my VRAM was capped at just below 500mb. Updated my Nvidia driver, changed resolution, and restarted the game to no avail.

Tried googling issues with New Dawn and limited VRAM but couldn't find anything related. Any advice ya'll can offer?

Thanks in advance.

Does this happen with everything else or just New Dawn?

EDIT: I just realized you said laptop. It's possible that the game is trying to run on the integrated GPU. You can try to force it to run it on the discrete GPU through Windows Settings -> System -> Display -> Graphics Settings
