Can I increase dedicated video memory on intel hd graphics?

[Pcbuilder78687]

I am about to assemble my first PC (Motherboard is yet to come). And I am planning to buy a new gpu after a while(like 5 months). till then i have to game on my intel hd graphics 4600.
MY PC Specs:
CPU: i7 4790k
Motherboard: MSI H81m-E33
Ram: Hyperx fury 16gb(2x8gb) ddr3 1866mhz

While casual browsing I found that there is a way to increase dedicated memory of integrated graphics.

http://www.pvladov.com/2013/10/increase-intel-hd-graphics-dedicated-video-memory.html

I saw the procedure and everything but i had a little doubt that will i be able to do that with my 4790k and h81m mobo. because my mobo is very.....let's say not a high end one, will i be able to do that?
And if yes to how much extent?
And I wanted to know if there is a way to increase the memory speed of the hd graphics?

Thanks in advance.

Please Help!!

No, you cannot increase the speed.

Memory speed is the speed of your RAM.

On a H81 board, the Intel graphics "GPU" frequency is probably locked solid. I have seen BIOSes where you could change the graphics frequency slightly.

so it means my igpu speed will be 1600mhz because that's the maximum memory speed allowed by my h81 mobo.

And please send me step by step process of increasing graphic frequency in msi bios if it is possible.

I don't think you can increase the video memory of any graphics component. I've always been under the impression that it doesn't matter if it's integrated graphics in a CPU or a foot long dedicated graphics card, you're stuck with the video memory you paid for. You should be able to run most mobas on that CPU just fine. But if you're trying to play and FPS like PUBG or something, you're probably going to have to wait until your get that GPU.

Most Intel MB BIOSes have an option somewhere like this. Both of my laptops with HD Graphics do (Sandy Bridge and Haswell).

Dudeman509, that increases video memory??

It increases the amount that the chipset will allocate to Intel HD Graphics.

Some scale it dynamically within Windows.

Damn. So you can actually increase your graphics performance this way? What about with a GPU? Can you allocate video memory to like... an SSD partition or a blank USB stick?

No.

If you have anything that will run on HD graphics and make use of what little power is there, sometimes giving it more VRAM helps.

You cannot do this with any dedicated card. Most video cards have very fast GDDR5 compared to using system RAM.
