Its an additional limitation with the nvidia cards, and I wondered if the AMD cards had a similar limitation, with regards to the number of textures you can load into their VRAM, irrespective of the amount of VRAM available. if not....happy days. 

I think that AMD doesn't have hose limitations but I'm not completely sure. You can get better informaiton from Dade at the LuxRender forum.

Cheers.
