Question Radeon 680M (APU) in RDR2 is it ok to use higher some of the settings

[danny009]

Is it ok to use some of the in game settings to mid or high when using this APU integrated GPU? RDR2 In game indicator shows 7000MB for this and I believe it is incorrect value. Is it ok to use higher than real vram if that's make any sense? I will be cooling the CPU anyways with 720p 20fps anyways so I was looking the justify that a bit by increasing the settings like Shadow Quality to Mid and Parallex thing to Ultra. Texture Quality is set to Mid. I always use texture to mid even in RTX cards.

Is this all okay? I rather not giveaway my laptop name and all that cause some people treating like as if it's actual trash. Hope you understand!

I am not familiar with the 680M, but increasing the game's settings won't cause damage to your hardware. Worst case scenario, the game is unplayable (low fps, stuttering), then you lower your settings until you are happy with the result.

That will also more than likely decrease already very low FPS. but yes you can push as much as you are comfortable with FPS. If you are playing in full screen mode, try in window mode,might get better results.
Don't know what you mean by using "Higher than real vram" APU uses only system RAM, has no Vram.Using more than installed RAM means using virtual memory which is on disk and that's much slower even on fast NVMe SSD.

Ps. APU uses only up to 2 GB of RAM,
