My MSI card says I am using only 6GB even though the game is demanding more.

Hi, I'm pretty new to overclocking stuff and have done it before but back in the day. When I try to stress test my GPU on a new clock with MSI Afterburner monitoring, it only shows 1/2 gb of memory being used while I play games and usually jumps up to about 6gb depending on what game I'm playing. My question is: if it's really just using 1/2 gb of the memory for that stress test, does that mean my system will still stay stable with those settings?
Not every stress test needs a huge amount of VRAM. I should try OCCT instead, and it performed better than my old "hardest" stress test, which was Folding @ Home.
