TechPowerUp GPU-Z v2.38.0 Released

TechPowerUp today released the latest version of TechPowerUp GPU-Z, the popular graphics subsystem information and monitoring utility. With the latest version 2.38.0, we are introducing the ability to detect Resizable BAR support. GPU-Z can now tell whether Resizable BAR is supported, and if so, whether it is enabled. AMD refers to Resizable BAR as AMD Smart Access Memory, but it is a feature developed by the PCI-SIG, which lets your CPU see the entire video memory of your discrete graphics card as a single addressable block, rather than through 256 MB apertures. This feature has been found to improve performance in games that can take advantage of it. Resizable BAR status can now be viewed from the main tab, right next to the multi-GPU status.

The latest TechPowerUp GPU-Z also adds support for new and upcoming GPUs, including AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, RX 6700, RX 6600 XT, RX 6600, and Ryzen "Lucienne" mobile processor iGPUs. Support is also added for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile. Other new features include the ability to monitor negative temperatures on NVIDIA GPUs. We fixed video BIOS extraction on AMD RDNA2 GPUs (Radeon RX 6000 series). Grab GPU-Z from the link below.

The change-log follows.

  • Fixed BIOS saving on AMD RDNA2 cards. BIOSes saved with old GPU-Z versions are only 512 KB and will brick your card when flashed
  • PCI-Express Resizable BAR status is now displayed in the main window
  • Added support for negative temperature monitoring on NVIDIA
  • Added support for AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, RX 6700, RX 6600 XT, RX 6600, Lucienne APU integrated graphics
  • Added support for NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile

W1zzardAs far as I know, resizable BAR is only supported on GeForce 30 ? Check Device Manager -> Resources -> do you see a "large" memory range there? If not, BAR is disabled. You can also check "System Info" in NVIDIA control panel, which shows the BAR status too.
All I have read are rumors of maybe, eventually it would be supported on RTX 20-Series. What got me giddy was nearly every screenshot from other RTX 20-series cards says 'Not Supported'. For whatever reason, on my system it says 'Disabled'. To me, Disabled might mean it could be Enabled (at some point) whereas 'Not Supported' seems like the feature is simply not present.

I do not have the Nvidia BAR status though. Just a pipe dream at this point! haha

Yeah, you’re right. I added the bar enabled/disabled on the main screen first, and then added the more detailed readout.

Enabled/disabled/not supported seems like a good change, will add that
