How to Increase Graphics Card Memory
Do you like this story?
Just like system memory, memory on a graphics card dictates how efficiently it can handle larger workloads.
Typically, the memory on a graphics card cannot be changed; it's permanently fixed to the card. However, some graphics cards are built into a computer's motherboard, allowing a portion of system memory to be dedicated to only the graphics card.
Changing the amount of dedicated video memory can only be done by accessing the BIOS (Basic Input/Output System), which is the system used for configuring motherboards.
Instructions:
1:
Restart your computer.
2:
Open the BIOS by pressing the appropriate keyboard key when the system is starting up. This varies with every motherboard; refer to the manual or the manufacturer's website.
3:
Look for a menu item that references hardware or video memory. Use the keyboard to navigate. There is a navigation legend located in every section of the BIOS to assist you. Reference the motherboard manual or the manufacturer's website if you can't find the appropriate setting.
4:
Adjust the amount of video memory. You will be limited by the motherboard; it has a number of preset memory amounts to choose from. These cannot be altered.
5:
Save settings and exit the BIOS.
