So we have prepared a guide for you to fix this problem.
Guide to Fix Red Dead Redemption 2 Out Of Memory Error
Gamers were complaining that the game would run fine on the benchmark when DLSS was turned off. However as soon as they turned DLSS on and ran the benchmark, they would get the Out Of Memory error and would be told to restart the PC. Even running the game in Safe mode would not help. If you are one of these gamers, then follow the steps listed below.
- Turn off all your overlays. This includes Discord, MSI Afterburner, etc. The game really seems to hate overlays.
- Try launching the game directly from the Rockstar Games Launcher instead of the Steam launcher.
- Go to your motherboard BIOS settings and disable the Resizeable Bar option. You will have to check the manual of your specific motherboard model to find this option in the BIOS.
All Done
You can now turn on DLSS without having to experience the Red Dead Redemption 2 Out Of Memory Error again and enjoy the game with the improved performance and FPS on your system. Let us know in the comments below if this guide helped you. You can check our other guides related to this game here:
