Well it is finally here what AMD call SAM, Nvidia call Resizable Bar. A way for the GPU to access larger amounts of Memory in one go. Please note the process is not totally easy and requires a number of steps to be completed.
Once I actually have it working I may comment on any improvements it brings to the table.

Amount gained ranges from 3% to 12%.
May also reduce performance in some games Nvidia seems to be using a white list method of enabling RBar in the above games so that reductions in performance should not occur.

I'm particularly interested in seeing what can happen when a game explicitly supports it, what will actually be gained when the asset loading is optimised for that.
Some improvements have been seen despite no such support.
But also some regressions.
