Bug: DX12 ignores iGPU UMA frame buffer size (VRAM capped around 3 GB)

Can we please get a GGG acknowledgment that there’s an ongoing DirectX 12 VRAM allocation issue on some AMD iGPU/APU systems?

In Path of Exile 2, DX12 appears to only use about ~3 GB of VRAM on my system, even though I have allocated 16 GB to the iGPU (UMA frame buffer) in BIOS. When it’s limited like this, I get very low texture quality (muddy textures) and, more importantly, item labels/tooltips do not appear for items on the ground and items can appear invisible or fail to render correctly. This makes the game difficult to play.

System
- CPU/iGPU: AMD Ryzen AI Max Pro 390 with integrated Radeon 8050S
- iGPU memory (UMA frame buffer): 16 GB (set in BIOS)
Renderer behavior:
- DX12: VRAM usage stuck around ~3 GB
- Vulkan: uses the full available VRAM but loading times are extremely long or endless
- DX11: uses available VRAM but performance is very poor

Why I think this is a PoE2 DX12-specific issue
Other DX12 games on the same system correctly use the allocated iGPU memory.

Workarounds tested
- Vulkan uses full VRAM but causes extremely long loading times, sometimes effectively endless, so it’s not playable for me.
- DX11 performs very poorly, so DX12 is the only viable renderer in terms of performance, but the VRAM limitation breaks visuals/UI.

Troubleshooting already tried
- Cleared shader cache
- Reinstalled GPU drivers
- Reinstalled the game
- Tested different graphics settings (textures, resolution, upscalers, etc.)
No change.

If this is known, could you confirm it’s being tracked? If not, I can provide whatever you need (client log, DxDiag, a screenshot of the graphics settings page, and VRAM usage figures for each renderer).

I'm not connected to GGG in any way, but experienced same issue with AMDs 8060S. I run the game from time to time to see if anything changed, and today, heureka! Game can see full 16GB and runs great. I thought I'd share to bring it to your attention.

Keep up the Good work GGG!
