i have a basic question related to computer architecture... How do graphic card word? what i mean is RAM sends data to the processor, and it is required to deal with GPU at the same time... since the same RAM is dealing with the CPU and GPU, the performance of CPU and GPU will get compromised and eventually they will get bottleneck ... i know this is not done as i said then whats the procedure???
 
Solution
Discrete GPU's have their own ram, referred to as VRAM. The only time that RAM is shared by the CPU and GPU is when the integrated graphics (iGPU) on the CPU are being used. And yes, when the iGPU is being used you have to be mindful of how much RAM is installed and how much is allocated for use by the iGPU.
