im going to say cpu is bricked. do you have any dignostic lights on your motherboard? did you make sure your cpu has the proper motherboard? My friend bought a h370 mobo for a 6700k which... PC part picker said was COMPATIBLE smh pcpartpicker...

have you checked if the rest of the system is in working order? I suggest trying to put your gpu's in a different system to rule them out.

I would like to report........................ Today im using normal ammounts of Vram, Around .5gb at idle and i filled out an RMA form yesterday already..... UGH!

alright, on amazon (where I got it from) i dont know if there is a warranty like newegg, tho I think its a manufacturer warranty so i think ill be alright Thanks for the help @JoostinOnline and @Spurdo Джесси

well that kinda sucks, are either of you running windows 10 idk if it matters but mine is unactivated @JoostinOnline @Spurdo Джесси

@JoostinOnline the picture at 1.3gb of vram used is idle

@JoostinOnline yes, it goes back to around 1Gb used at idle and @Spurdo Джесси Iv only really been paying attention recently since it has become my Main PC while my other PC sits waiting for a new GPU so it could have always been this way or it could be recent i dont really know

So my Zotac mini GTX 1060 6Gb is often maxing out its video memory in games like dying light and call of duty world war two, Even when I go to the lowest settings possible on the resolution and video settings its still maxing out the 6Gb limit and causing hitching and studdering in every game I play, Even CSGO!. I have monitored all other system resources and nothing is being maxed out what so ever not even the GPU usage... The only thing I can find is the GPU Vram is being maxed out often. Even when Call of Duty says its utilizing 2700mb of Vram it shows in MSI after burner and in task manager that all 6gb are being used. If anyone knows if this is a defect and can be covered by warranty or if it is an incompatibility of some sort, either way I just want it fixed so my games dont freeze, hitch, crash, or anything but run while I want to game.. I often find this happening in the middle of a fire fight in numerous titles such as even Pub G which seems to crash alot.. My build is a Ryzen 1600 overclocked to 3.65ghz on stock voltage and stock aircooler, Zotac Mini GTX 1060 6Gb at stock speeds, I have 16 gb of Corsair vengeance LPX memory at 2666mhz, An Asrock AB350M pro4, A Samsung 960 evo 250gb as the boot drive and a 2 tb WD blue hard drive for mass storage, A stock HP case from an old prebuilt and an EVGA 500 watt 80+ bronze certified powersupply. I have a 4k monitor from another build I had that I sold my GTX 1080 out of at the right time so I could upgrade to Volta or whatever is gonna be the latest coming out but for now i'm using this system to run the panel at 1920x1080. Whenever I play games Im always in 1920x1080. I have the latest Drivers for my GPU Updated as of 3/24/18 and I did an all around system "tune up" (defragged drives, flashed bio's, and checked all drivers were up to date) 2 weeks ago. Here is a link to the system on PC part picker and I purchased this system somewhere around black friday and cyber monday of 2017. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vzgd6s Thanks and I hope to resolve this ASAP... Oh, and the textures take around 30 seconds to a minuet to load in high quality, even games that are installed on my SSD.
