My experience is quite simple. Running the game with a 2GB graphics card is nearly impossible. Using a 3GB card gives you already less crashes. Having a 12 GB card, gives nearly no crashes. To check this, I started a loop in a console:
It showed me that each load screen occupies around 15-20 MB of video memory. Opening the trading outpost consumes 100MB for the coherentui_host. Once, the video memory is occupied or exceeds a certain amount (something above 1.5GB with the 12GB card), the application crashes.
Further I noticed that the graphics card details are incorrect. Older crash dumps had correct video driver version and video ram size. Crash logs now report 0 byte video ram.
