Asus GPU Tweak

[aka.Goliath]

So I was wondering why Asus GPU tweak is telling me I have 2GB of vram on my Asus 6870 (it should have only 1GB), in the pic, on the bottom graph it reads usage 1949.8 max in MB. Any ideas?

Run MSI Afterburner and see what that tells you.

If MSI Afterburner reports the same, then it is most likely Windows 7 that is adding 1GB of your system memory and using that for caching textures and things.

justt run gpu-z and cpu-z, or aida 64 extreme edition and check if everything is in order.
