When using radeon overlay in games, the use of the video card's RAM begins to grow until it is fully used, after which the use of the system memory begins and the computer starts to slow down. If you leave the game, the video memory of the video card is not reset to normal values (300-400 megabytes) and continues to be used around 2 gigabytes. Without the use of Radeon overlay the problem does not occur.

CPU intense games use a lot of ram FC5 for one on my system uses 7.8 vram/9.2 ram.

It's not radeon overlay causing it, test it yourself with HWINFO64 sensors running and no overlay.

You'll see similar, if not same result.

A memory leak occurs when the Radeon overlay is turned on, in any game. If you do not use the overlay in the game, there is no memory leak. When using msi afterburner, fps monitor and monitoring using amd link there is no memory leak.

I have seen this leak myself. AMD won't see your findings here. These are user to user forums, so you are preaching to choir. If you want to let AMD know you can contact them through the only means they give you:
