Hey guys! Does your internal GPU (GPU in CPU) total aviable graphic memory depend on total system memory (RAM). I'm talking about Intel HD Graphics 4000. If you have more RAM, do you have more VRAM? Thank you for reading my thread, also any advice is welcome, I'm curious about it. It's better to ask before doing something.
 

Not necessarily.
The Intel HD Graphics 4000 uses 32MB for basic OS tasks and will borrow RAM from the system total memory when is needed.
Depending on the system you have, you might be able to allocated more that 32MB (e.g. 64MB) in the BIOS.
 


No. They have their own limits applied by intel which is around 1.7GB max for that igpu.
