I'm spitballing here. I'll use an analogy: Remember SSHD? Maybe this VCache can be best utilized by games to have better RAM to GPU Memory pipeline and this "Optimizer" is just a fancy name that enables CPU to have data which is either ready or doesn't have to be processed by CPU to be sent to the GPU? Is something like this possible?

Maybe Gigabyte is taking a hint from DirectStorage...to use a heap on the CPU and direct it to the GPU for faster decompression. Or maybe they are working on something for people who's systems can't meet the requirements. I should try this, even though I have a Threadripper.

uh, no.

Ah, I see....this is from the EPYC Processor tech where this triples the L3 cache. Robert explains it. [youtube=dSCpVhKvmCY]

(Edit) I don't know how to strikethrough, but false positive here. My firewall policy changed after I loaded this (pfsense). So...this driver is doing more than expected as well as I installed this on my X399 E-Gaming motherboard/system. I also complimented this by installing the Ryzen Master and set the CPU to Local Mode (for better gaming experiences). So far so good, but I would have to run some tools to look under the hood of this driver.
