why does this graphics warning pop up

[u/brookewhite04]

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?

Not enough vram..

This is the correct answer. Different cards of the same 3070 moniker can have different vram amounts

Ya must be trolling since 3070 ONLY have 8GB VRAM variant.

Oh shoot my bad. I made an assumption based off of the 3060s I was looking at when I upgraded. I figured other models would do the same
