"I installed Crysis 3 on my graphics card!

I used some VRAMdrive software called GPU Ram Drive, made a 15GB NTFS partition on the GPU, then installed Crysis 3 on it

At 4K very high settings get good fps and the game loads very fast - GPU-Z reports total VRAM use 20434MB"

That's just crazy. I remember back when less than 1MB of RAM was on a 286. And I'm not even "that" old. ;) Wild times. Imagine when GPUs alone will have more RAM than the average computer. :))

I had 3.5K Ram on my first computer (Commodore Vic20), then got the 8K upgrade!!

I think my Timex/Sinclair had 4K RAM until I added a 16K module. :-B

Worst, my IBM286 had a key lock..but by father never locked it out...good fun playing around autoexec.bat and config.sys to manage memory for games.
