I really hate to sound like an nVidia fanboy at this point because I seem to be defending them without question, but that video shows exactly what happens to any GPU which is pushed beyond it's VRAM limit, and any multiboxer can experience this exact behavior if they pushed their settings too high when running so many game clients, and my main issue with the video is that there is zero indication of what their VRAM usage was before and after the setting change.

I just find it odd that there are plenty of GTX 970 owners who claim that they are not having any issues, and those that swear that they are having issues, are also having a difficult time producing any actual proof with consistent measurements. I actually stopped reading any threads about this two days ago because the claims I kept reading were just so wild and out there, but if there was an actual problem and people expect to have a case, then they're going to need some consistent results (e.g. not random YouTube videos w/o any hardware specs or monitoring software) that show a problem, and not the fact that nVidia messed up some release specs on paper.
