Do I Have Enough VRam?

SixHunters129 · Oct 18, 2013

Hello, I am looking at buying a new monitor. The only problem is I only have 2GB of VRam. All I will be doing on this second monitor is browsing the web and watching YouTube Videos while I game on my other monitor. Do I have enough VRam to do this?

Thanks!

I have a 2GB GTX 670, and I run two monitors just fine. As long as you don't put a triple monitor setup on one card you should be good.

Vram seems to be a non issue.

Adding a side monitor to a gaming monitor on the same card adds negligible load.
Not to worry.

You will get lower performance while playing games and watching videos though since the graphics card needs to render the game and decode the video.

I am curious...
How can you play a game and watch a video at the same time?

Drag your web browser to the monitor that the game isn't playing on, press play, then go back to the other monitor and play.
