GTA IV by far doesnt eat as much VRAM as it shows ingame.

My GTX 260 has 896MB of VRAM and while it shows ingame that its going to need ~1400MB (edited config to allow it ofc), it actually uses only about 700-780 MB (according to RivaTuner which is way more precise than GTA IV's ingame calculator lol).

And i play in 1920x1080 and usually pretty high settings.

Well of course, it tries to leave a separate amount for things such as aero ect.
