Determining memory interface width of videocards?

Post by His Royal Majesty King V »

All,

Got what I hope is a simple question.

Is there software out there that will be able to determine if a video card has a 64-bit, 128-bit, 256-bit memory interface?

I've got a few cards of different chipsets, and mostly unknown origin and original packaging, and I'd like to be able to determine not only the amount of memory, but the interface width as well.

Thanks in advance!

The very excellent PC diagnostic program Everest does it, at least for the cards in my PCs, including my laptop. Quite impressive.
