Now available as part of the Radeon™ Developer Tool Suite.
Radeon™ Memory Visualizer (RMV) is a tool to allow you to gain a deep understanding of how your application uses memory for graphics resources.
Download the latest version - v1.2
This release adds the following features:
- Tooltips added to show resource details on the Resource overview pane.
- Range-based address searching added for the resource tables.
- Bug and stability fixes.
Radeon™ Memory Visualizer (RMV) v1.2 is now available
RMV v1.2 introduces range-based address searching, resource tooltip, and has been updated to work with Qt 5.15.2.
Benefits
- Profile your game's memory allocations.
- Find memory leaks.
- Understand resource paging.
By instrumenting every level of our Radeon™ driver stack, RMV is able to understand the full state of your application’s memory allocation at any point during your application’s life.
Obliterate oversubscription
The quick, simple interface tells you if you are over-subscribing a heap, and how the driver stack has reacted. Quickly find resources which are not in the optimal heaps.
Rethink your resources
Understand which resources require the most memory, which heaps they are in, and how your heaps are sub-allocated. Rapidly detect patterns in how your application is behaving.
Appreciate your allocations
Look for fragmentation, and understand how you are managing memory in each heap you create. Understand the balance between dedicated and placed resources.
Make good those memory leaks!
Easily find memory leaks in your application by comparing snapshots.
Profile that paging
Dig into how resources have been treated over their lifetime. Understand how the operating system and driver have managed the physical backing for your resources, including paging during times of heap over subscription.

- Initial release
The RDP provides a communication channel with the Radeon™ Adrenalin driver. It generates event timing data used by the Radeon™ GPU Profiler (RGP), and the memory usage data used by the Radeon™ Memory Visualizer (RMV).
RGP gives you unprecedented, in-depth access to a GPU. Easily analyze graphics, async compute usage, event timing, pipeline stalls, barriers, bottlenecks, and other performance inefficiencies.
Radeon GPU Analyzer is an offline compiler and performance analysis tool for DirectX®, Vulkan®, SPIR-V™, OpenGL® and OpenCL™.
