GPU RAM usage with Eyefinity

[Haldi]

Hi there.

When i updated MSI Afterburner 2.2.0 to Beta 7 i realised that there was new GPU RAM usage!
kinda happy i couldn't hold back and did some Test, which game uses how much RAM, and with how much AA :)
After a whole day testing i have some results at hand to show.

But there is so much, and i don't really feel like sorting it, here you have all the raw Data :) Enjoy.

Interesting... Thank you for sharing the results! :)

Nice. I was just starting to look for a VRAM usage monitor, and i already use Afterburner.

If I remember correctly, the only reason this works is because AMD finally decided to allow access to VRAM information in the driver. nVidia have done so for years, but AMD (until now) have kept a tight leash on information that monitoring programs can gather. Regardless, it's nice to have the feature now; let's hope it stays fully functional.
