thank you, i was wondering why my obs keeps crashing while streaming. i was always using display capture and it probably used too much power. definitely using game capture from now on

Is that actuall VRAM usage or Allocated VRAM? There is a pretty big difference between the 2.

Allocated VRAM is just the amount of VRAM that is being requested from the GPU, MSI after burner as a way of showing it per process and in total. I use both in my metrics.
Dedicated VRAM is what is being used.

In my modded Cyberpunk the requested VRAM is often around 9, 980MB (260MB short of the maximum) at most where is the game usues around 8500MB depending on the area, now this is a modded game. so there is that. But as you can tell there can be a 1GB discrepency between what is being used and requested by a given application.

Question what about comparison between window capture and game capture? I've noticed in OBS that Game capture and Window Capture seem to be relatively the same thing. Window capture doesn't seem to come with the same disadvantages as Display Capture so what are the advantages? I am also a single PC user.
