Max idle vram when using 2 monitors - amd 5700 xt
Hello,

So far from the search on google I found out that with 2+ displays, vram will always be at max when idle, but i thought to ask anyway.

My displays are Asus xg32vq 144hz 1440p and Dell u2311h 60hz 1080p.

Disabling either monitor will drop the vram clocks. Idle temps are too high (not that it can damage the card, but the room temp is getting higher too and i dont want to use ac to drop it)

The memory clock can't change when you have two monitors with different resolutions and refresh rates because you would see screen corruption every time the memory clock changed. The memory clock has to change during the vertical blanking period between each refresh to retrain the memory without screen corruption, but with two mismatched screens, the blanking periods won't be synchronized.
