So i started playing starfield with hwinfo64 open on the side.
After 4.5 hours the game crashes to desktop and when i look at hwinfo64 it reports a gpu memory usage of 199,xxx GB, yes 200 GB and it remains in use according to hwinfo64.
Meanwhile windows taskmanager reports a normal vram usage. Closing hwinfo64 and reopening gives the same 200GB vram in use. Restarting the pc resets the reported vram usage to normal in hwinfo64.
Today i start the game for the second time with hwinfo64 open and i notice immidiatly the reported gpu memory used starts climbing steadily again, windows taskmanager reports a stable 10 gig used, hwinfo 64 keeps reporting a climbing number, at this point i just closed hwinfo64. This is not the first oddity this hwinfo software is showing.
