As Rob McCarthy said from LM they have build this in to force the textures loaded in the RAM/VRAM to be continously reloaded while you advance thru the scenery.

For me I assume it prevents CTDs, when VRAM is nearing its peak it transitions the SIM from EA mode to non EA. Hope I'm right though...

December 15, 20205 yr Author 1 hour ago, Rob_Ainscough said: No, you can still run out of VRAM ... DX12 has less "protective" overhead (one on many reasons why it's faster than DX11) and is more reliant on application code. Texture Streaming will reduce the VRAM usage but you can still exceed VRAM and get an error (usually get a video ram exceed dialogbox not a CTD). If you're getting CTD, that could be something else. You can monitor VRAM usage in sim with Shift+Z cycle. Enabling Texture Streaming will have a small FPS hit (not much) Cheers, Rob. Thanks for the explanation so if I have it disabled then the sim will not try removing EA so I can continue as normal? That will still happen if I disable dynamic texture streaming?

December 15, 20205 yr Author Another observation is that although I have a free-sync 4K Samsung monitor I get screen tearing UNLESS I *uncheck* VRR and *do check* vertical Sync + TB I did take the advice and locked the fps only in NVI and fps is indeed better/ less stutters. My only concern is blurries I experienced in the past with my older i7 4790k, we'll how that goes with my current i7 9700k.

December 17, 20205 yr Based on Rob's suggestions, I looked at the Dynamic Super Resolution setting on the NVidia control panel. I currently have factors 1.20x, 1.50x, and 1.78x enabled with the smoothness set at 33. I'm now setting the display at 3413 x 1440. At this resolution, I can use 4 or 8 x MSAA and get the same AA that I was using 8 x SSAA for before. I have VSync on and TB on and frames set to 30, all in the NVidia Control Panel. Things seem very smooth so far.
