RX 580 8G only uses half of the memory. Is everything okay?
Hello, friends. A similar question has already been on the forum, but to be honest, I didn’t fully understand the results
.
Ryzen 1600
RAM 2х8gb 3200mhz
Video Sapphire RX570 8 Gb.
Today I decided to check the system and play Resident Evil 2.
I put a game preset on the graphics (high settings, 6.9gb of video memory is required out of 8.0 gb available) I play, everything is just fine! But at the same time, turning on system monitoring MSI Afterburner noticed:
-100% but only 3.9gb of video memory was used (8gb the game itself successfully determined in the settings)
2 RAM 14.5 gb uses, which seemed somehow wild to me.
After that, I went to look at the properties of the video adapter in Windows:
Available graphics memory 16359
Used video memory 8192
System memory 0
Total system memory 8167
Tell me, friends, is this normal? The system itself decides how much memory it should take and reserve from?
I probably misunderstood something, but it turns out that the video card memory is "offloaded" and the RAM is used x2?
I ask you not to swear strongly at my ignorance and probably stupidity. I hope for help in finding an answer to the question why is it so:)
Best regards!
