if you are using Crossfire or SLI it only detects the VRAM on one of the cards

That's because of how Crossfire and SLI work. They don't add up the RAM like in a system. SLI/Crossfire is more like multiple computers working together than multiple cores in a system with RAM adding up. Each GPU is tied to its own RAM, and in order for a GPU to process images for display, it needs to have the textured stored in its respective RAM.

It will probably be a couple of years till we will be able to play with everything on highest/100 without any hacks or modifications.

Irish_PXzyan · Jan 4, 2009

With my system I run everything on highest settings but view distance set to 60. I run it smooth and never get any lag??? I see no problems at all. Great game!

Urbklr · Jan 4, 2009

Got my copy running:

High Texture
Highest Processing

40 View Distance
70 Detail Distance
40 Car Density
8 Shadow Density

Anything higher I get stuttering, even thou it runs smooth FPS wise. Need more RAM, 2GB isn't cutting it. BTW, I run it in Windows XP 32bit.

A GTX 260 will do the same.

27 and counting, lol. yea my bro has been doing all the missions and side jobs as its been going, so i just stopped counting the hours on here.

I played the game in a very modest PC, the performance is bad (sometimes framerate can go to 15 or less), even at lower settings, but the game is pure fun, now I'm having some fun in the multiplayer mode...
anyway, I made this video one month ago of the game running here (athlon X2 @ 2.5ghz and 8600gt ddr2)
