Note: Operating system support varies by platform. Due to this and a limitation of the database, Download Center search capabilities cannot report OS support accurately, so please see the support information below or reference the associated Read Me's for more details.

Intel announces that we are moving from beta support to full official support for the Vulkan* API on Windows going forward.

Vulkan* targets high performing real-time 3D graphics applications, like games, while giving low-overhead hardware control over GPU acceleration to developers. Vulkan* promises great performance and predictability, while paving the way to better equip games to handle virtual reality or 4k HDR.

Description

Provide a detailed description of the issue

Dota 2 on vulkan is consuming 2GB of RAM. That's half my total RAM and double of the ram consumed by the game when i run it on directx 11 or directx 9. FPS is good but i can't play it like that, the game can randomly crash because of an alt+tab or a big team fight.

Please place an X to the right of the option showing how often you see this issue using specific steps. (Ex: 'Every few times a game is started it flickers.' <- This would be "Often")<p>
