GPU not using dedicated memory?

Apparently (even when gaming) my GPU isn't using the dedicated memory just the dynamic memory, which is the shared system memory is it not? :confused:

Why would it do this or is something wrong?

looks like a bug to me.... 0MB is impossibru
 
Not to mention your performance would be catastrophically slow :D
 
maybe you should check with asus tooland see if its the same:wtf:(dont worry dont have to have asus graphics for it to work)
 
Perhaps dedicated memory actually has cold feet and just wants to maintain a dynamic relationship?
 
I've noticed this on every windows 8 install. It must be the result of some difference in memory architechture between windows 7 and 8. I can say from experience that nothing is amiss, and that its just the result of running GPU-Z 8 on windows 8 instead of windows 7.

Perhaps Wizz will provide some clarification on this front at some point, but for now you're ok!
