Which of the graphics memory types uses both ram and dedicated graphic memory?
Most if not ALL modern video/graphics cards use both RAM from the MoBo and The dedicated RAM on the card.
Graphic memory type that uses the system memory RAM instead of a dedicated graphics memory chip?
Integrated, or on-board graphics chips use system RAM instead of dedicated RAM. They are usually very low power, and not suitable for gaming.
Can your graphics card access extra memory from your computer?
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.
What is the difference between dedicated and shared graphics?
Some graphics cards have memory on board the card itself. Others rely on the memory chips on the system board for memory , thus sharing memory. Suppose a PC has a specification of 256MB of memory and 64MB shared graphics. The memory available for your operating system and applications will be 192MB. If a PC had the same specifications but the 64MB were dedicated, the 64MB required to run the card would use this memory, leaving the full 256MB for your operating system and applications. In short, shared = compromise, dedicated = better.
If you have more ram does it help the graphics card?
no graphics cards have there own built in video ram The above answer is only partially correct. If a computer had onboard graphics, where there is no dedicated graphics card, then the graphics chip is on the motherboard itself. In this case, it will use the system RAM for memory. This can reduce the total amount available to the system. So if you have onboard graphics (no dedicated graphics card), then a dedicated GPU(graphics processing unit) could in fact increase available RAM. However, the difference is not likely to be large. RAM is cheap. Your best option is to buy more RAM for your system.
How do you increase video memory For a Windows XP?
change it by bios first you need a dedicated graphics memory otherwise you8 cant
What does the acronym 'VRAM' mean?
VRAM is an acronym for 'Video RAM' which is the high speed computer memory dedicated to a computer's graphics hardware. Some systems use a portion of the computers normal memory for this, and others have dedicated memory for this.
How strong is Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 graphic card in gb?
It is an on-board graphics unit - meaning it shares resources and does not have dedicated memory.
If you have 64 mb of dedicated memory in your PC and shared graphics memory of 223 mb means total graphics memory of 287 mb can you play a game which requires 256 mb graphics memory?
It should work. You may need to go to the game options and set the video settings to minimal, but it should still work.
What should you look for in an excellent laptop?
Answer:It depends on what you would use the laptop for. I like to compare it to buying a car myself. The general things you want to look for are: Processor: Look for a laptop that has a Dual Core CPU with a minimum of 2Ghz. Laptops using these dual-core processors perform exceptionally faster than laptops using single-core processors, particularly when multitasking.RAM Memory: Most laptops nowadays usually come with 2GB of system memory. (unless ur going really cheap) Check to see if it's expandable for more memory as well.Graphics chips/cards: Graphics chips/cards come in two types: Dedicated and Integrated. Dedicated graphics are chips/cards which have their own memory. (they don't have to rely on shared memory from the system) AMD and Nvidia make dedicated graphic cards/chips. Integrated graphics are where they use the system memory. Intel creates Integrated Graphic chips. If possible look for a laptop that has Dedicated Memory especially if the laptop is running Vista Premium or higher. (due to Aero display)Hard Drive: Most Laptops today contain a minimum of 120GB. That seems to be the standard. When you use a laptop, you'll find the storage space fills up quite quickly. So try to get a laptop with at least 120GB or larger.Screen: Standard displays for laptops or 15". Some have the larger 17 inchers. Think about mobility when it comes to the screen size. It seems some laptop cases don't "shape" very well with the 17" screensOther things to consider:Weight: how heavy is it?The keyboard (how it feels with your fingers... are the keys too close together?)Battery: How long does it last?Wireless communications (does it have integrated wireless?) 802.11n is the standard nowWebcam: if you plan to do alot of over the net chattingI'd recommend doing some research first before buying a laptop - You be happy you did
How do you lose dedicated video memory?
Dedicated video memory can be lost due to several factors, such as system updates or driver changes that reset settings, or if the graphics card is removed and reinserted. Additionally, if a game or application is uninstalled, it may free up some of the dedicated memory. Overheating can also cause the GPU to throttle its performance, effectively reducing available memory temporarily. Lastly, if the GPU is failing, it may not properly allocate its dedicated memory.
What are some of the features of the Dell Inspiron 9100?
