    I have a HD6970 with 2Gb ram.

    The game is only reporting my card as having 720MB ram when I look under 'Video Res' in settings. Is this just a reporting glitch or is it only using that amount of ram?

    Might be worth checking for those with performance issues.

    Are you using 32bit Windows 7? If you are 3.4-4GB dependent on the iteration is all your system has access to and that total includes VRam.

    If you hit ctrl + f a couple of times the bar in the top left corner should let you know how much vram you are using. Of my 2gb afterburner has me pegged at 1800mb of usage.
