Hello.

I have HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15-cx0037ur with 16 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti.

Bought it 4 months ago, I have used it mainly for educational purposes. However, I sometimes play games, and it handled games such as Dishonored, PES 2017, etc with no problem. However, I explored just today that it has just 128 MB of VRAM. I mean, it also has 8264 MB of Total Available Graphics memory, so why VRAM is too low, especially for a gaming laptop? Also, it opens older games like PES 2011 in medium quality, saying that video card is unable to open it in high.
Can it be fixed?
And sorry for stupid question if it's so because I do not know too much about computer specs.
Thanks in advance.

@xa13d, welcome to the forum.

 

The video card has 4 GB of memory.  Where did you find the 128 MB of VRAM?
