VRam not enough

[Joch]

Hello, i recently started playing Doom Eternal, and when i went into the video settings the game told me that my Vram is of 2333 and i can play the game in all ultra settings but the one requiring more Vram of what i have, as a result the game looks awful but runs very good. I searched how to find my Vram, and i found it was higher than 2333, so i was left confused. What can i do? why does the pc tell me i have more Vram than what it will use? Any help i will deeply appreciate as i have very little knowledge of technical pc stuff.

 

Thank you in advance.

It should be able to run DOOM Eternal on low to medium settings, give it a try.

Yeah it can run all settings on ultra but the "Texture pool" one, which even in low exceeds my pc VRam capability, which Doom says to be 2333, but my pc says otherwise. I don't know if this is a reality i have to live with or something i can fix, like a bottleneck or something like that.
