Product: hp 17 notebook
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

recently got a hp 17y01cy with AMD Radeon r7,12gb ram and a 6gb shared memory, expecting that the VRAM will be good enough to handle all I want it to, only to find out it has only 512 Mb VRAM, please is there a way I can increase this, or a walk around for me.Screenshot (51).png Screenshot (48).pngScreenshot (48).png

Hi,

The VRamcan not be increased and is not necessary. It is a dynamic process, the graphics will use more RAM when necessary as it shares the RAM with the system, so even the "dedicated" RAM is system RAM.

 

Hope it helps,

David
