please help me with BO4 Vram hogging

[Nogghan]

can someone please tell me why blackops 4 crashes when its only using like 5gb of Vram? and in game it says its only using less than 2gb? even if you added them together which why would you its still not the 8gb my 1080 has

im playing on 1080p all medium or lower settings because on high details in less than 5 mins i hit a vram limit and hard crash with the lovely DX error you see here, the ingame screenshot is just before i went into the game, i played the game for less than a minute and left and then the game crashed at 5gb as seen by afterburner please help

That's what would happen with a fake card with a flashed BIOS?

no its defiantly a real 1080 unless they sanded down and reetched the DIE with a 1080 code just like Nvidia does in which case if they did and they still managed to sell it as brand new with all the retail packaging and MSI branding and stickers and shit id actually be impressed especially with how clean it looked and the old thermal paste i cleaned off  

also my 1080 armor looks just like every other 1080 armor OC ive ever seen except now its got a new cooler

so... i dont think its fake

atleast im 100% certain
