    Random question, how does AB "store" the settings that you apply to the card? Does it just use a small amount of system RAM, GPU vRAM or what? I'd like to know how settings stick even when you close AB, for example.

    I guess it is apply to driver, but I am testing with mobile.

    So I guess system RAM then, right? I'm sure this seems obvious to some but I just have no clue

    No. It doesn't consume additional system RAM

    It stores the settings in Program Files (x86)\MSI Afterburner\Profiles.
