    Does the Asus Z70Va with the X700 properly support hyper memory in the catalyst 5.9 drivers?

    I have an Acer 4402 WLMi with an X700 (only 64MB) and it doesn't support hypermemory.. which sucks cause I was hoping for the 128MB on the view.

    Also, does anyone hve any benchmarks or first hand experience of hyper memory actually increasing video performance, frame rate etc? I know it makes your computer think it has more dedicated video memory, but does it really operate as such?

    no added performance with hyper-memory (read some of my other posts about this... haha, i have a strong opinion AGAINST hyper-memory) and I'm glad to hear the x700 isn't plagued with this gimic. The x700 on the z70va also has 128mb, which is plenty for all games and most applications.
