Ideally you should always have 10-15 percent VRAM free at all times for optimal use of your VRAM (allowing a little stepover space for swapping in / out textures into your VRAM) - So if your VRAM usage is way up against the VRAM max all the time. The bright green line is how much VRAM is being used in the game On my screenshot, on the top graph you can see a dark green dotted line, thats the maximum amount of VRAM on your graphics card (my laptop Geforce 970m has 3gb) Whereas Land textures are needed everywhere, and there are usually a bunch of them in your near vicinity which are being blended where they meet, plus all the ones being cached in case you wander in any particular direction = Having lots of 4k landscape textures can take a bigger wedge of VRAMīest way to find out is install what you want to have in game, and run Skyrim Performance Monitor. Body mods for example only come into play when an NPC is nearby, and they are cached in VRAM and re-used for any other NPC in the vicinity, so really body textures are something you can have at 4k which are more likely to be looked at more closely but do not overuse your VRAM. It also depends how often throughout the game those higher res textures are in use. ĭepends how many of the vanilla textures you wish to replace with 4k textures really.
The Vanilla game with its usual assortment of appropriately sized textures per object takes just a little over 2gb VRAM. Assuming Skyrim SE which has the old Bethesda High Res Texture packs as its standard textures for the newer game, and you are then adding to those with more 4k textures.
