Tidus44 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 The 4GB RAM mod isn't necessary, the latest patch fixed that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor444 Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 I'm not talking about the Mod who can use "4GB Mod" I'm talking about if I can use mods that require 4 GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgiegril Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 That looks like your GPU ram, not your VRAM. Can you please list both, or do you have integrated graphics?What mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bben46 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 There are no mods that require 4G of ram. Skyrim is a 32 bit game - it can use a maximum of 4G ram for the entire game. No matter how much ram you put in a computer it still cannot use more than 4G. Your system is a 32 bit system, it can use a maximum of 4G ram. However, Some of that ram MUST be used for stuff like windows and some other stuff that is absolutely necessary - leaving you with about 3.44 G available for everything else - not just the game, but any background programs and processes that you have running. Again, no matter how much ram you add, you can only use a maximum of 3.44G. Windows has a built in limitation that limits the ram that any ONE program can use to 2G. However, there is a way to allow it to use a little more - with the LAA patch applied to the program - that allows it to use up to the maximum available - but still not more than 4G MAX. That patch was applied to Skyrim in one of the previous patches - So The game will use whatever ram is available under 4G - in your case, up to 3.44G Mods can use the swap file so that some of the data is NOT in ram all of the time, but is swapped to the hard drive to make more room in ram. if you have a lot of short pauses that is probably what is happening, the data is being swapped in and out of ram. Every mod takes up a part of the available ram - so a very large mod or a bunch of smaller mods will use up available ram quickly - the usual indication that you have run out of ram is a CTD crash - Crash to Desktop. The computer suddenly is displaying your desktop and not the game - the game must be restarted from your last save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
