AMD R9 390 - Curiosity - Owl - 2016-01-17 11:13

Hello guys,

I have just been looking around my hardware with CPU-Z and I found that according to CPU-Z my card has 4095MB of VRAM. But in CNext (AMD Radeon Crimson Driver), it says I have 8192MB of VRAM. There are now 2 variants of the R9 390, a 4GB Version and an 8GB Version. I was sent an 8GB Version as a replacement to the 8GB Version that died at Christmas. Could someone tell me what's going on please? Thanks in advance!

If its dual gpu, it will report double but only half is usable by the os.

Either that or CCC is showing you your actual system memory (not vram)

It is showing the VRAM size for definite.

Is it a dual gpu card? (As mentioned above)

Nope.

CPU-z tends to get information wrong. I wouldn't go by that. I think there is a GPU-z that is more accurate for gpus.
