I use windows & Linux, so nothing will surprise me ;)

What does it say in the box with VRAM?

„Main VRAM not detected. “
And
“Amount of VRAM memory - 512MB”

I’ve never heard that term - main VRAM.

phew at least the secondary VRAM must be detected

So I guess the question is, is the iGPU fully disabled in BIOS?

Yes, with fully disabled iGPU in bios, VRAM is not detected by steam.

I also discovered that it also breaks Nvidia detection (probably Intel too). It also works the same with Intel CPU's and it's integrated GPUs.

Steam, no matter what, won't show second GPU, if there is any, and will mix both information from both of them.

Hmm I wonder if mine did then, guess it must have I paid no attention really.

Check it. At the top of the client, click "Help" and "System Information."

:nkCool:

mine says only the iGPU on my 12100 i3.....there is a 1070 on this system......my 5700x and 3080 shows up right but there is no iGPU option in that system.....

That explains how 8% of people on steam use Intel GPU. Close to half of AMD GPUs.
And I wonder if AMD is under represented or the numbers are inflated by iGPU.
Every 7800x3D or 9800x3D has integrated graphics.

The hardware survey is definitely broken. The 5090 isn't even on the list but I've seen thousands of people on steam who claim to be using one.

Could be...? I mean, it detected my card, but neither bus nor VRAM were. Would not surprise me if the whole thing was off, since, i have an intel CPU with no IGPU at all, and it still didn't detect i have any VRAM.

How much more of this is broken, i wonder?

Seems it shows mine just fine.
