Started with 4.4GB and did some view changes which lead to 5.1GB.

Everything maxed out AND ticked/checked (yes: everything with 2xMSAA)  I got 9.3GB VRAM usage but horrible FPS (17 average)!

Further System Specs you will find at the end of this post.

With my 2080 with 8GB, I can tell you that sitting at LatinVFR KMIA with much lower overall settings, without TrueEarth, PBR Disabled, Clutter off, and 50 AIGAIM traffic, sitting in the NGX, I get 5.8/6.4. I love how vram gets treated more favorably with a higher spec card. Vram mngmt in p3d and/or Win10 makes zero sense.

That´s a very interesting finding! 

Although a little bit apples with peers compared here. No TE, no PBR and only 15 more AIGAIM compared to me (35 at my end) and than 800MB more VRAM.

But the question is here, is "every vram relevant slider" much lower? Because assumed you set only the dynamic reflection slider higher, for instance, can drive vram up too.
