It could be useful to display gpu total mem after AMD/not-AMD. the function getTotalMem() should work for both AMD and not-AMD I hope.

I am currently unable to add this myself. The though behind this is to provide complete gpu info to the user upon program startup.

Complete gpu info could be like this: Cache size, Max clock, Memory size, Vendor, Name.

Yes I think I can add GPU total memory probably, but why? what is the need? The user does have "clinfo" which provides pretty much all the info about a GPU.

Yes that's true but clinfo is a separate program not always installed by default, so if gpuowl provides that info it is a quicker way to look at it. Of course it is not necessary, just a nice addition.
