Smart Access Memory query

I just saw on today's video that other cpu's will be given full access to video card memory. Didn't know if this went into cpu or gpu and flipped a coin. XD

 

Anyone know if a Ryzen 5 3600 and Nvidia 1050 Ti will be in that?

It requires all relevant parts to support it. So you'll have to wait and see if AMD will enable it on older CPUs, and if nvidia will enable it on older GPUs.

Main system: i9-7980XE, Asus X299 TUF mark 2, Noctua D15, Corsair Vengeance Pro 3200 3x 16GB 2R, RTX 3070, NZXT E850, GameMax Abyss, Samsung 980 Pro 2TB, Acer Predator XB241YU 24" 1440p 144Hz G-Sync + HP LP2475w 24" 1200p 60Hz wide gamut
Gaming laptop: Lenovo Legion 5, 5800H, RTX 3070, Kingston DDR4 3200C22 2x16GB 2Rx8, Kingston Fury Renegade 1TB + Crucial P1 1TB SSD, 165 Hz IPS 1080p G-Sync Compatible

hey, any news on SAM being supported by older gen CPU and GPU as well as b450 chipset?

saw bios update for b450 tomahawk max with " Support Re-size BAR function to enhance GPU performance" guessing that is SAM.

I'm on Ryzen 5 3600 and rx5700xt, and tbh not looking to upgrade any time soon since prices here are a mess... so just asking to know if I should get my hopes up at all?

Mine has it, I worried through the entire 5m bios update fearing a power outage. sheeesh, hate updating bios for that reason. I just dunno if it's active on it's own or if I have to comb through my bios.

Heard that some mobo manufacturers are even extending SAM support to even older Ryzen CPU and 300 series mobos. Also read that some with RX 5000 series cards have enabled SAM with various mobos. 

 

For my part, I can seen 'Large Memory Range' (indicating that SAM is enabled) in my Display Adapter, and I have an X570 mobo (latest F31q beta BIOS), 3900X and RX 6900XT.

saw similar info too, just wanted to check if anyone has any experience activating feature. there are few clips on yt, a week or two old for that matter, where some guys activate SAM on MSI 450 mobo and ryzen 5 3600 cpu, but rx6800 gpu...

Not sure if mine is working but I have a 3600 Ryzen 5 and Gaming Plus 450 but with a 1050ti and I dunno how to find out if it's actually doing anything. The option to turn it on was in the bios.
