Graphical issue

Hi, I have a simple issue with graphics in game. Please take your time and watch the following 14 seconds video I shot. Read the video description. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evyPzkctYtw H...

I made a video in the same location so you can compare. Looks fine on my PC. On your PC the pop-in is indeed a bit excessive.

Here are my settings:

And my specs:

Intel core i5 4690K

AMD Radeon R9 390 (playing in DX11 mode)

8GB DDR3

Also important to point out that I run the game on an SSD. Mechanical hard drives are known to have some pop-in issues in this game, but I'm not sure if it includes the one you described in your first post. The issues on a hard drive are companions in Skyhold not appearing because they stream in too slowly. I think the GPU is indeed a more likely culprit.

This video is an other annoyance I shot, this time the almighty Skyhold. Read the description.

Sometimes a tree, human or an animal appears in the distance out of nowhere. This is a simple one I could capture. As was told, I strongly believe that the reason behind these glitches is my weak GPU. It looks like the GPU is just not powerful enough to render those details quickly. Combine this with poorly optimized Frostbite 3 engine and it will result with these glitches....

I thank you for shooting the video. I think it's clearly because of GPU, maybe VRAM is not enough. If I can manage to get an RX 480 soon, I'll try to figure out if HDD has anything to do with this issue.
