Pavilion 15 gaming laptop
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Good day guys.  Please my pavilion 15 gaming system came with a 4gb dedicated graphics  but has only 128mb of dedicated video ram. Is this normal or there is something I need to do.

What is the model/product of your machine ? Looks like it has both Integrated GPU (iGPU) and Dedicated GPU (dGPU).. The tool ONLY reports VRAM for iGPU, not dGPU.

 

You don't have to do anything.
