I have HP pavilion sleekbook 15,Intel HD graphics and Intel pentium(R) 987 1.50ghz processor,4gb ram,windows 10 pro 64bit,
If I upgrade my ram into 8gb will my graphics memory will increase or not?
My current graphics memory is 1667mb and dedicated video memory is 32mb.
laptops, minus a very few exceptions, are not easily upgradeable.
apart from ram and hdd they are "as-is" forever.
intelHD are integrated graphics. they can not be made larger. they have a cap.
no matter if you had all the RAM in the world it would remain untouched in graphic ram.
also to post above... that is NOT true.
You CAN add an external GPU to a laptop.
...
But they are NOT cheap and definitely not compact.
Basically its a GPU dock that connects to your laptop (given the varied connectors not all could be used with them) afaik cheapest one is aroudn the $200 mark..and that is without the GPU card itself.
(recently saw one that came with a 1070 and it was together aroudn $600)
and at the price its likely to be better just to upgrade the entire laptop to a mroe modern one as it will come with a better integrated graphics
