Hi,

 

So I have been trying to get my game (Overwatch) to use more than its currently taking. I have 8GB of RAM and it seems to only use around 1.3GB, similar story with VRam on my graphics card, I have 3GB but it only uses around 900MB. Is there anything I can do to give the game more power so to speak?

 

Windows 10, 64-bit.

The only way to increase the games usage of vram is to up the graphics but if it is at max settings then it's where it should be.

Getting my GTX 1070 and its probably going to do the same, I wish I could dedicate it more sigh.. I mean years ago Call of Duty 4 was pushing 1GB Vram and using 4GB Ram.

I'm confused. Why exactly do you want it to use more?
