Hey guys got a question or two and figured I would ask around and see what you guys say about it.
I use gpu z to see whats going on with the video card since it's easy to alt+tab and see it. I game at 1366x768 on a 720p hdtv. I had a evga 8800gt 512mb card and when playing MW3 with every setting put at max gpu z reported memory usage at 480mb for the highest reading.
Now I have a gtx 260 and same settings but my memory usage shows up as 719mb for the highest reading. Really just wondering how does memory usage work in games. Just by switching cards I am using 239 mb more of memory at the same res and settings. Does that make sense?
