If you are asking me then 256meg dedicated... if you want to know how to find out and you are running windows
start->programs->Accessories->System tools->System Information
Select components from the left hand side.
Click on Display
on the Right you should see "Adapter RAM" that's how much you have.
Yes, this is called shared memory. But it isn't useful, its mostly a gimmick because the memory speed is much slower than a graphics card with dedicated memory.
By upgrading the graphics card.
No.
There is no way to upgrade the memory on a graphics card. The "limit" of memory is the maximum amount of shared video memory that the graphics card will occupy in the system's RAM. The best way to get better graphics performance in this situation is to buy a similar NVIDIA card and SLI them together.
No, a graphics card does not store any permanent data like programs or games. The video memory (VRAM) on a graphics card is just like regular memory--it is volatile. This means that any game information stored in the graphics card memory is removed as soon as you close the program it is associated with or turn off your computer.
Video cards have their own memory. Adding RAM to the machine will help graphics performance, but not as much as a card with more on-board memory.
graphics media accelerator or in other words graphics card or video card. a hardware for computer to boost up the speed of the display graphics of the computer. it also ends up the sharing of memory of the computer RAM for the display graphics. it also enables the computer to have graphics memory depending on the memory of the graphics accelerator allowint the computer to have games requiring high graphical memory.
Graphics cards are rated in MHz, memory and frame rate.
You have mentioned both a graphics card and a motherboard there. You can add memory to the motherboard in the form of RAM sticks, but you cannot add memory to the graphics card. You can "trick" the computer into thinking it has more memory by allotting space oh the hard disk to be used for graphics memory but this will decrease performance as the hard disk is much slower and is generally not reccomended
The integrated video card will
Yes it is.
the memory between the video card and the mother board DO NOT need to match. the memory on the vid card CANNOT be upgraded.
