can i have my vram back please?

since ultimatum league i have to restart the game every few maps cos game maxes out my vram and kills the textures etc

this is a very light demonstration of what happens, often its way worse than that

the change where game tries to max out my vram use has killed the game for me

literally unplayable for 3 leagues now

ive been hoping there something done about it this patch but nothing has been

i just want to play the game again without restarting the client every 3 maps and loading into a stupid TOWN with tons of characters with tons of MTX who instantly fill up my VRAM usage

Rofl, that's not a game, that's your GPU, most likely dead vram chips.
This certainly has not been happening to you for past 3 leagues. When you start seeing those sort of artifacts, you don't get 3 leagues of gameplay before the card just dies.

Post specs and screenshot with temperatures e.t.c from gpu-z running while game is in focus. Since you bs'd about ''this has happened for past 3 leagues'' simple gpu is good temps are solid won't do.
No rest for the wicked.

Its definitely a game thing , me and ~15 guildmates have the same issue. Not sure for others but for me it only got bad last league. As soon as I enter town my vram maxes out (presumably from all the mtx) and textures become really low res, they stay like for a few zones after leaving town.

Either you or your mythical guild mates apparently can't even google.
It's either gpu core or as i said above, vram issue.

Two people manage to post random stuff, not one of you two bothered to even mention specs, or temperatures, especially temperatures because if it's your gpu core that's throwing a tantrum due to heating, it can be resolved if caught early.

P.S. go make your own topic, and do it proper, most people here wouldn't know how to turn on their own computer unless the power button had a known symbol, last thing anyone needs are the random ''i have the same problem because reasons'' reply.
No rest for the wicked.

Well if you really want to know my pc is :

AMD Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz Hexacore \ Thermal margin 50ish , watercooled
MSI GeForce RX 570 \ thermal margin 33ish while actively playing.
2x8GB DDR4 3000 Corsair

Idk if the rest matters.

The issue is not as nearly as bad for me as for op. My issue might be with the drivers. Windows 10 unfortunatly wont let me update them as it breaks the amd software every time there's even a minor update.

From known bugs :

Out of date drivers may not support Vulkan correctly and can cause various problems.
-Visual artifacts when running low on GPU memory
