December 12, 201312 yr I for one would still thank Word Not Allowed for doing careful tests. No human is error-free, however his results are much more valuable than those of people who sometimes gain attention by comparing results from configurations and systems being completely incomparable, as turns out soon.

December 13, 201312 yr Here's an oddity. This was coming into FB's KPHX in the incredibly easy on frames CoolSky Super MD 80 Pro. There were really no slider settings that helped frame rate coming in. And note the relatively weak GPU utilization--this was not a case of 'lost focus'.

Wrong, their 'recommended' is 2+ GB of GDDR5, their minimum was 1Gb. Note the '+' ...

December 16, 201312 yr To answer the original question: 2.67GB is the highest I've seen. Never have had a OOM error, solid 30FPS and very smooth. See "My PC" for specs. Lyn
December 16, 201312 yr Wrong, their 'recommended' is 2+ GB of GDDR5, their minimum was 1Gb. You know what I did? Read the P3D v1.4 box on the specs page.. That's where the 1GB came from..
