![]() There seems to be some serious confusion here around the word "Memory". This does NOT allow you to increase the size of each work chunk beyond the size of the local HBM2 VRAM, it just lets you switch to the next chunk faster, increasing overall throughput. This is for when the GPU is done crunching its current work chunk and is going to get the next chunk of work from the disk. Just like how Intel Optane is not RAM, it's simply a high speed cache that sits above the disks but below the system RAM. It's acting as a next step down from the VRAM, not as part of the local VRAM. ![]() "When the GPU wants more work, it has to signal the CPU, which then fetches data from the larger pool of local system RAM or primary storage." "SSG would not replace graphics RAM itself, such as GDDR5+ or HBM or HBM2, as it would be too slow."
