Why Are Modern PC Games Using So Much VRAM?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/hardware

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • HybridRenderingEngine

    Clustered Forward/Deferred renderer with Physically Based Shading, Image Based Lighting and a whole lot of OpenGL.

  • Aside from that, for more foundational information about how things like rendering and shaders work, there's a plethora of content out there such as NVIDIA's "Life of a Triangle" blog post or Fabien Giesen's "A trip through the Graphics Pipeline" blog post. There's really too much to link, so I'm just gonna link this treasure trove of resources covering dozens upon dozens of articles, presentations and blog posts from general computer graphics, GPU programming and architecture, software development, OpenGL-specific resources for getting into graphics programming, etc.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
