What is a video ram?
Video-RAM is the memory built into your video card specifically reserved for video-processing. Modern video cards have anywhere from 128 mb to 1 gb of RAM built in and dedicated to making video games run faster & prettier. This is different than the system RAM your computer uses for running programs, but on many laptops & inexpensive computers a certain amount of system ram may be dedicated to video in lieu of actual video RAM. Technologically video-RAM and system RAM are the same thing, the only difference is in their purpose.
