With the amount of infprmation u have given its like me asking you.....

"I have a boat, but I can only see 4 feet of it, is there any reason why??"

You have left out so much information it's hard to ....just think about your pc and include some information

Basically yes your missing the other 90% of this equation... to answer your question

is it that hard? ok well idk what else to tell you, its a gtx 1080 graphics card i am using it for gpu rendering, when rendering it uses a certain amount of vram, but up to 4 gigs is ok but after the renderer starts to use more than 4 gigs then i start seeing values like 1560 mb etc, i can see the correct usage in msi afterburner but not in gpu-z, ask and i will tell you what you want to know to help figure it out, here is a shot showing correct memory usage in msi but not correct in gpuz

btw ... yes 1st post was hard: no information of any value at all.

on a second thought .... 4096+1652 = 5748

soo ... i take that GPU Z shows up to 4096 and then restart from 0 for the second 4096

move along ... nothing to see here in the end ...

stil those numbers dont add up really, close but not exactly and why would gpu-z even do that? why not display it all at once?

why not post it in GPU-Z section and ask W1zzard ...

because between 5748 and 5855 there is ~100mb, that does not mean there really is a problem ... i guess ... :laugh:

in the 1st post you think there is a issue with your card, while there is none
the 2nd post give a little more information (and the answer in itself, seemingly )

(technically speaking you have answered yourself but do not acknowledge it...)

maybe @W1zzard could take a look at that screenshot?

perhaps because 4gb is a 32bit integer.

no in the first post i was thinking there was an issue with gpu-z itself and later i started thinking maybe its just how it works but it wouldn't make sense because then how would it measure a vram usage on a 12 gig card? or higher? anyway i emailed now the gpuz guys to get a better answer because i have always used gpuz when i had a 970 but its only 4 gigs now i have a 1080 seems i might have to stop using gpu z if i cant measure correctly vram usage which is critical to my business

You didn't remove your 970 either, it still shows up as your 2nd GPU in there and I doubt you're running Maxwell and Pascal in SLI

Remove that thing in device manager, reboot, then come back here and tell us what you see :) 99% certain those 4 Gb are just a heritage of that card.

yes the 970 is maxwell and the 1080 pascal and no sli, its a rig for gpu rendering where sli is not needed, i did try it once before removing the 970 and testing but it was the same thing

no reference is made to GPU-Z only a vague description, which seem to imply there would be an issue somewhere else

i might have to stop using gpu z if i cant measure correctly vram usage which is critical to my business
or you could just add the result, when you go above 4gb, to 4096 and get the actual value :laugh: (mildly joking but that's how i would do if it did bother me that much.)

ok i get you, its not a bother really just wondering why it works the way it is now, am fine reading it in msi afterburner but you know, am curious to know since i have trusted gpuz for years

again if the counter is resetting at 4gb its because its a 32 bit integer that wasn't updated

is it that hard? ok well idk what else to tell you, its a gtx 1080 graphics card i am using it for gpu rendering, when rendering it uses a certain amount of vram, but up to 4 gigs is ok but after the renderer starts to use more than 4 gigs then i start seeing values like 1560 mb etc, i can see the correct usage in msi afterburner but not in gpu-z, ask and i will tell you what you want to know to help figure it out, here is a shot showing correct memory usage in msi but not correct in gpuzView attachment 80465


well, you mention its used to render graphics, is it installed in a PC?
is it turned on?
is it plugged in?
Do You run Windows , IOS?, Linux? some shit OS you created that lacks things?

you wanna be smart, but Hell, you didnt even include WHICH ZOTAC gpu you have!!!!! maybe in a ploy to turn a profit they made more than one, So YEAH! your post was shit, and I pointed it out,dont be butthurt, Fill in Your specs and be greatful people are even willing to help You.


i CANT believe no one else has asked you any of these things, im gonna bow out of this , enjoy your day. OP

Oh, and btw its likely that the file inst put in the right spot, in your OS.
its an easy fix, just reinstall a driver, and update the other one. you'll be good to go.

What vayra said. the gtx 970 is confusing your gpuz in thinking the 1080 has a capacity of 4096mb like the gtx 970. I guess it's a bug in Gpu-z that needs to be fixed.

i tried with his version as well, its the same result, his ui looks different from mine

no one else asked because its not needed, ofcoarse its plugged in, its windows 7 and why should it matter which version of windows? its thr 1080 you need to learn to read, its a forum its a place where people come to help each other but anyway your help isn't very useful you more here to satisfy some internal need to rant and let off steam because you don't know much about what your really saying anyway. I am smart, i dont try to be but gpu rendering is new to me and the fact that this is a new card am not sure about it and its why i came here, idk what's so hard for you to understand there

Does GPU-Z and afterburner show the same amount when you are under 4GB?

Does GPU-Z and afterburner show the same amount when you are under 4GB?
afterburner shows the correct readings, see the images i posted at the very start, its what i dont get, msi shows it correctly but gpuz doesnt, for me that is, for others it does but its a different ui that pops up for them and we are both running windows 7 ultimate

annnnddd you didn't understand his question... he was not asking if the 2 reading were same after passing 4096mb but before.

Can you actually read my answer and not ignore it? and not only mine. then you know what's going on maybe.

Not sure why it even matters.

Any decent renderer is going to display how much ram or vram it's using. I guess OP wants to know which GPU is using how much ram, but it shouldn't really matter.
