Rise Of Tomb Raider + Grid Autosport/dirt Rally

[Deza3000]

Anyone here manage to max out rise of tomb raider on their PC ?

I used up 4gb of vram on my gtx 970 + an additional 3gb of my system ram (+ the 2gb to run the game) due to textures, on a 1080p monitor. It runs 60+fps, but when i suddenly change location or go to a cut scene the computer chokes as it tries to load textures from system ram The gpu has the horsepower but no reserves....so annoying arghhhhhh. Vram is the fuel pump of the GPU world, doesnt provide enough response to the core I read somewhere that even a 980ti will struggle with this game in terms of vram, need 8gb~. The visual fidelity isnt all that great considering the system requirements it needs, i mean battlefront looked heaps better and that thing barely used any system resources. But i highly recommend rise of tombraider, best offline game ive played in a while! Heaps to do and pretty good story too.

On another note, Grid autosport (grid 3) is on sale for 9 dollars on steam. I didnt even know they featured the v8 supercars! VF and FG series v8s, should i or shouldnt i get it? I saw the reviews and i dont knowwwwwwww whether i should get it cause it seemed average, i want to get it but im also thinking of getting dirt rally as that game got 9/10 on most reviews. Opinions on either??

How does TR look at 60fps on your machine? I bet its awesome!

Yea its pretty damn good! I can get it close to 100 if i turn off HBAO+/VXAO and that hair thing. Those 2 settings kill gpu performance
