    Ok. I did a SLI guide and now time to do a vRAM/memory bandwidth guide. A lot of people seem to be confused about vRAM in general. Well, here we go.
     
    Let's clear up some misconceptions about vRAM! 
     
     
    What does vRAM size have to do with gaming?
     
     
    Bonus: What happens if I don't have enough vRAM that a game asks for for certain settings?
     
     
    And now resolution, Anti Aliasing and operating systems
     
     
    And now about multiple monitors
     
     
    Now, onto memory bandwidth and memory bus and such. You may wanna skip this if you know already and are only here for the vRAM size portion above, but I might as well be thorough if I'm doing this. Spoiler tags save the day!
     
    vRAM types & memory clocks
     
     
    Next, memory bus and memory bandwidth!
     
     
    Extra: Memory bus + mismatched memory size section
     
     
    And the GTX 970 gets its own section! Hooray!
     
     
    FAQ
     
     
    Windows 10 and nVidia 353.62
     
     
    Final tidbits and stuff
     
     
    I started writing this guy mainly for the top section, to denounce misinformation people seem to have regarding vRAM and its relation to memory bandwidth, but I figured I might as well just go the full mile and explain as best I can about what most people need to know about GPU memory anyway. If I've somehow screwed up somewhere, let me know. I probably have. I'll fix whatever I get wrong. And thank you to everyone who has contributed and corrected things I didn't get right! Unlike my SLI guide, much of the information here was confirmed post-writing.
     
    If you want the SLI information or the mobile i7 CPU information guide, they're in my sig!
     
    Moderator note: If you believe any information found in this guide is incorrect, please message me or D2ultima and we will investigate it, thank you. - Godlygamer23

    I honestly do not download a lot of content. I mostly stream shows etc. Maybe I might look into that. I will check out those programs you mentioned. I have a decent "theater" setup in another room. I am mostly just trying to fill some empty space. Thanks for the reply and tips.
    Never been here I definitely will check it out thanks.

    dan357 reacted to Pendragon in Laptop Price   
    very much so. a 980m is about an underclocked 1060. but the heat output is higher. so, unless 1060 laptops cost more than this laptop in your area, it's VERY overpriced.

    dan357 reacted to patrick3027 in Windows 10 has reached Adware status   
    Seems like some people are now getting OneDrive ads in the file explorer. It is unclear from the current reports online if this is limited to preview builds or not, or if only certain regions are getting the ads. My only source for this news is two reddit screenshots and a thread on 4chan.
    https://www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/5xec80/is_nothing_sacred_advertisement_for_onedrive_in/
    http://boards.4chan.org/g/thread/59233293
     
     
     
    The ads can be disabled by going into File Explorer Options > View > Uncheck "Show sync provider notifications".
     
    This is completely unacceptable IMO, Windows 10 isn't free anymore and the current amount of ads in paid software is simply appaling.
     
    EDIT : Apparently this isn't new, there are reports of ads showing up in the file Explorer since mid January.
