> VRAM usage varies between 1.5 - 1.9 GB
is there a way to make use of all available VRAM?
>>51797401
why?
install gentoo
>>51797401
No because Fallout 4's textures are too shit to use more VRAM.
Its using all it needs... Are you retarded?
>>51797401
Increase resolution
You need to tell fallout 4 to increase its usage, simply create a bat file with the right python commands. Then double click it. This will unlock all that vram gold
>>51797401
Fallout 4 is stupid casual shuter with stupid casual quests, and with crafting for ten years children loving minecraft. Its natural shit.

for better performance - so that the GPU doesn't go to system RAM as often
>>51797676
lol, I can't even.
You should be looking at GPU usage percentage retard
>>51797657
English motherfucker, do you speak it?
>>51797699
you can't even understand how game assets are cached in memory?
>>51797401
Buy it for xbox one.

vram is used for textures and the next buffered frame.
If you want to do usless mem -> vram -> mem -> cpu operations to save some of your memory then get coding.
expect slower game performance due to needing to do alot more work to get the data to the cpu.
For the most part, your vram usage is correct and thats how it should be, the game is more then pretty pictures and thats all your video card will be doing.
>>51797401
start another instance of Fallout 4 up
Making it use more vram will not increase your FPS. It's already using what it should use based on your quality and resolution settings. Get a higher end card if you really are obsessed with higher performance.

WHAT THE FUUCCCCCCCK
IT runs at 80-120fps depending of grass etc. but what the hell is causing the annoying microstuttering
>>51798402
play fullscreen borderless.

kek
wait for a 4k texture pack mod

The game supports it in the options.

>>Get micro stuttering all the time
That's your mouse. It's not a gaming mouse with high DPI. If you use a shitty mouse and slowly use it to look around it will look like it stutters as the view changes because the mouse inputs are larger than the 60fps movement on screen.
>>51800705
That's nice, dear.
>>51800730
I have a fucking G502 with DPI set to 5400
>>51800769
Fuck bruh. Don't know what to tell you then.
>>51800769
>DPI set to 5400
all gaymen mice have sensors that crap out past ~1000 dpi, use 400 or 800 dpi and 500mhz poll rate.

Do you even?

I think what he's saying is that he wants it to cache more textures and things the GPU will do, nothing that the CPU needs to worry about.
I can agree but I get why it won't make a difference.
>>51797401
All the settings at ultra with a 1080p monitor, v-sync active, triple buffering, max MXAA,max anisotropic filter and other shit like that.
>>51797445
Which is why you download nexus mod manager and load it down with texture packs.
Holy shit this thread, its all over reddit is the place to be now
>>51800769
kek
>>51801040
you have no idea what you're talking about
the CPU still has do draw calls to tell the gpu what to render and what to display
>>51797401
I guess you can try loading more uGrids, but that will make the whole game require exponentially more cpu and gpu power
