Can top show top mem users by MB not % in conky?[Solved]

I have googled everything. I can not figure out how could I display top memory usage programs in conky with the "top" application. I want it to display MB not the procents. Can that be done?

Access these three menus:
'f'
'o'
'O'

Make sure 'q' is selected for physical memory (RES).

edit: And then press 'W'.

If you want to display the memory usage of an application in conky its like:

{top_mem mem_res 6}
