eLIMination · Jul 19, 2016

So i'm trying to increase my dedicated video ram on my computer so that i can run games that i couldn't run. I have 8gb RAM and right now it only show that i am at 128mlbs. These here are my computer information. It is a desktop PC and i tried checking some tutorial online and seen that it could be change in my BIOS setting. but when i go into my BIOS setting.. /advance.. i do not see any options for me to change any rams related things. I tried looking at other tabs as well and can't seem to find it. Any ideas???
Pictures of my Screens.. to show that i can't find the things to do with changing the rams..

Look for a setting called something like VGA or IGPU. That's where you'll find it, right now it's probably set to AUTO.

Go into the bios, and on the bios page to do with graphics you should see an option to select what graphics chip set to use.

Igp or IgpFX.

When selected there will be an option for the maximum amount of system memory that can be set aside for sole use of the integrated graphics solution.

How much it varies is down to each manufacturer of the laptop of computer as to the maximum amount of system ram you can dedicate to the graphics chip.

It can start from 32Mb of memory all the way up to 1Gb of system memory being reserved for the graphics chip.
When set to 1Gb of memory reserved the total system memory or ram fitted to the system will be lower and report as 7Gb. instead of the 8Gb you have as it is reserved for sole use by the graphics chip.

I'm unsure as to what it does if i disable it. they were both enable, and the option i was given to to let it stay enable or to disable it. I also added a few pictures onto my post to let you see my screen and the options i had. Please check it out and see if im missing anything. Thank you!
