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 is the minimum memory does a video adapter needs?

The minimum memory a video adapter needs can vary depending on the intended use and resolution. For basic tasks such as web browsing or office applications, a video adapter may require as little as 512 MB to 1 GB of memory. However, for gaming or high-resolution video editing, a video adapter typically needs at least 4 GB to 8 GB of dedicated memory for optimal performance. Ultimately, the required memory will depend on the specific applications and resolutions being used.
