This is a broadly substance free post. But I assume most VR headset owners have at this point at least tried Half Life: Alyx.
It therefore follows that most of you are familiar with this dumb popup you get the first time you run it:
Fair enough, on my old PC I only had a Sandy Bridge i7 2600K and a GTX1080Ti. Maybe I was below the recommended requirement even though I played through the entire campaign just fine.
Well, I just built a new PC containing a Ryzen 9 9900X, a Radeon RX 7900 XTX with 24 gigs of VRAM, and 64 gigs of system RAM.
And I still get that dumb “low memory” popup.
This game came out four years ago, Valve. What the hell did you expect people to play it on? A Cray EX254?
Those messages are wrong in most games, especially as they age. Alan Wake 2 still tells me that my driver is too old and then runs just fine.
Although I did not get that message in Alyx on my 7900 XTX.
