More Ram OR More VRam

[ITSDAVEMAN12]

Hey,
So I am wondering if i should get: 8GB of 3200MHz DDR4 Ram with 8GB of VRam OR 16GB of 3200MHz Ram with 4GB of VRam,

Thanks

Well it's a lot cheaper to add ram later than it is to buy a new video card with more ram so I'd say go with 8GB vram and 8GB ram if that's what you can afford.

You can't upgrade the amount of vram in your graphics card. You have to buy a whole new graphics card. When it comes to regular ram, you can always add more

Knowing 8GB and 4GB of VRAM is almost meaningless without knowing the specific graphics cards.

Complete specs of the systems in question?

Not the Best but ok.

The 8GB 580 / 8GB will provide a better gaming experience than any 4GB card / 16GB of system RAM.

The 1500X wouldn't be my first choice for a gaming computer but I assume it's a prebuilt?

Ahh far cheaper that it is US right now. There is shortage because of crypto currency mining.
£443.53 or $560 USD the cheapest on amazon.
