[QUOTE="Paranoid Delusion, post: 842014, member: 13176"] You can use that to see if graphics memory is getting wiped out, but the problem that started supposedly with the 280.xx series of drivers regarding eating video memory will also wipe out the shared total memory allocated which mine is 1279 including the 512 from the graphics card, so can be viewed from Task manager with the option "always on top" set, ideal if proving that some how MP is at fault, you can watch memory rising in the performance tab. So what has been reported over at the nvidia forums, if playing video using any player ie WMP, then nonpaged memory increrases, so I suggest Emph does a 15 minute test using that, If the memory does not stay stabilized after a couple of minutes, then there is a problem with driver, if it does remain stable, then repeat using MP and see if task manager shows memory use increasingi. Sadly GPU-Z does not have a always on top\or OSD feature, so unless you are using windowed mode, then hard to monitor, EVGA Prescision has osd for reporting real time info, but that's another discussion.
