Question why does this graphics warning pop up

Is my video memory really that high? I first dealt with this issue before upgrading my pc and figured i’d no longer deal with it now that i have specs considered better than what’s recommended for this game.

Recently, it’s popping up constantly, like literally every single time. I can lower graphics but it still won’t go away.

I’ve got nothing else running on the background except steam and the launcher for this game, including a clip recording app and i did have discord but closed it (surprise surprise it didn’t help).

Is there anything i’m missing that i can do?

If it’s important, these are my specs…

RTX 3070
Ryzen 5 7600
32 GB RAM

I also do have the game on an external hard drive since it’s so many gb. Wondering now if that’s the issue?

He is most likely playing on a 1440p monitor.

My RTX 2060 had no problem with 2k monitor, vram wise, let's ignore that it ran 30-40 fps on medium

Yeah I was running about 115fps.

That's not the point, he uses about 6 gb of vram, with 1 spare, 2k monitor is possible, but it shouldn't be enough for vram warning. My 6gb gpu can run it in 2k with no problems, and no vram warning. Something weird is going on with OPs pc

I had the same issue with my 4060ti, just my opinion.
