Ghost Recon Breakpoint 1440p

Now we will continue our Ghost Recon Breakpoint testing, this page shows 1440p resolution across the board from “Ultimate” to “Medium” settings.  This one did show above 4GB usage all the way down to “Medium.”

The exact same pattern holds true at 1440p, which makes sense.  The 8GB Radeon RX 5500 XT has some huge performance advantages over the 4GB Radeon RX 5500 XT until you get down to about “Medium” settings in the game, then they are very close.

The 8GB Radeon RX 5500 XT is playable at “Very High” settings at 1440p thanks to its larger 8GB of VRAM.  The 4GB Radeon RX 5500 XT is really only playable at “Medium” settings at best.
