1. Nothing can help Bethesda. They would have to pretty much completely rebuild the game to fix the problem.

2.  Thanks for repepeating it but I know what I said. You still haven't answered the question.

3. That doesn't make any sense. The RAM that is in your motherboard is system RAM. All of it. 100%. Video RAM is on the GPU. I just told you that I played it with at max settings with graphical enhancement mods no less with less than 1 GB of video RAM. The "processor" part of the GPU does the graphics rendering, not RAM. RAM is just for holding the data that is being processed.

The PS3 only has 256 MB of Video RAM ,so how has it been releasing 90% of it games in HD if that isn't enough?

So why all the guys in the internet show Skrym using over 1GB VRAM (not system RAM) even with mid resolutions???

Eg. http://imgur.com/r/gamingpc/MatJS

Why the gamers are buying 4GB GPU to play Skrym??? They don't need that... need system RAM lol lol lol

Skrym bottleneck is VRAM, not system RAM.

Show me a person who bought a 4GB GPUto play skyrim and I will question his intellegence.

OS: Windows 7/Vista/XP (32 or 64 bit)
CPU: quad-core Intel/AMD
RAM: 4GB
HDD: 6GB hard disk space
GFX RAM: DX9 video card with 1 GB
GFX: GTX 260/Radeon 4890 or higher
Audio: DX compatible sound card

The max setting on Skyrim list "4GB" system RAM as  a requirement and 1GB (GFX)Video RAM exactly like I said. I played with a GTX260 that had 886 MB of RAM on Max settings with enahncement mods and had not a single problem.


No game has ever needed more video memory than system memory, not in the history of the Earth.
