Hey Elfear, long time no speak. Hope all is well in your corner of the world. :-)

I haven't played Skyrim, didn't know there was a texture pack that combined with 8XMSAA bumps memory usage over 2GB at 25X16. Still, that is the exception, not the rule. I suppose if you're a Skyrim addict (and many are) with a 25X16 panel (few are) that's a valid consideration.
