Do you have a NVIDIA 970?

If so, it's best if you wait and see if NVIDIA issues a mass recall, at the moment the 970 has a rather serious memory allocation bug.

Look at the VRAM benchmarks, if the Gbyte/s is going down from 150.00 to 16.00 Gbyte/s after allocating 3GB of VRAM then there is a fucking problem.

So your lazy ass doesn't have to read the article:

You might want to upgrade try a Zotac geforce gtx 980 had mine for a few weeks now and never had a problem runs games like it was nothing​

But seriously,  that's a pretty big fuck up if it's the case. I haven't seen any of the bigger tech sites carrying it as a mainly article yet though so let's not panic just yet.

I take it all back (not the #980masterrace thing though):

So why do they still perform so well?

Not Fully utilizing all the RAM on the card.

I know arma3 does not fully utilize 3GB of VRam

This is a REALLY big problem!

 

[William carter]

If my Gtx 980 start to bug on me i might have to switch to my trusty gtx 650 ti, it never let me down when in need of a good gpu.​
