| I already installed practically every gfx and high res texture mod available ... :) I wonder why the VRAM usage keeps dropping, especially during the loading of the save game and then later while running around. Looks to me like some limit is hit and it has to free some room so it unloads data from ... |

| I've made a video that demonstrates the effect. Please watch (and make sure to enable HD playback, full screen and annotations): https://youtu.be/ItLnPosez3I As you can see, during loading the level, the VRAM is already flushed once. And then, while I'm running around, the VRAM usage is capped at ar... |

| I have to correct myself: Additional enbhost.exe's DO spawn indeed. But only once the system memory of the first process exceeds 4 GB. Which sounds correct actually. But the memory footprint of the process was never my problem: The texture memory in the GPU's video memory is. It seems that the amoun... |

| Additional question: When and how is the additional spawning of ENBhost.exe processes done? I used the process monitor to monitor "process create" calls. I can see one call when TESV is starting: 10:07:33,4728210 TESV.exe 17236 Process Create D:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\enbhost.... |

| Thanks for answering! I've never seen more than once ENBHost.exe instance running (checking with the Task Manager). Is there any option to control the multiple spawning? I'm using MSI Afterburner to check VRAM usage. During preload, the memory usage grows until just above 4000 MB and then drops back... |

| I just installed a Titan X expecting Skyrim & ENB to use more than 4 GB VRAM. But actually I can't get it to use more than 4 GB. Actually, when opening the In Game ENB panel (Shift-Enter) and opening the "Profile" section, I can see that the available memory seems to be cut of at 4 GB.... |
