If you have a GPU with lots of RAM (means: an expensive one), you either use it or not.
If you use it, Primocache can't.
If you don't use it: sell it and buy RAM from the money you get for it - PrimoCache can then use that RAM.
If all I wanted to do was play games I'd buy a bucking X Fox!
I game, but that is less than 30% up the system uptime.
The rest of the time the GPU and its VRAM are sitting idle.
ie:
At least 70% of the time that 8GB of VRAM is sitting idle. (At boot; its ALWAYS idle..)
Those who want to game sometimes can't rent and install a gucking frafics card for an hour or 3 on a daily basis.
Therefore, there are a huge # of systems where the VRAM is sitting idle most of the time...
Are you perhaps under the impression that devs (like the excellent one/s at Romex) are incapable of writing software that senses when the GPU RAM is required elsewhere and stopping or reducing its use as a write through cache?
