not enough memory on ASUS GeForce GTX 750 Ti OC 2gb edition??? why??

[Dominykas02]

well I have this problem that when I play games (any kind) they crash and give me a error that my computer is running low on video memory? Is my video card broken or what? help!

Sounds odd, but the memory error you receive maybe a result of your RAM, but don't count me on it. Do you have any spare RAM modules you cold try to see if the error is resolved?

now my RAM modules are 333MHz could that be a problem? or should I change those?

Sometimes if you are running something at too high of settings for a particular game (like a heavily modded Skyrim for example) you get a crash when either your RAM usage exceeds 4GB (due to the 32bit cap) or your VRAM exceeds your cards limits (2GB).

If you get a error specifically saying "low *video* memory" it is probably your GPU simply is bumping against the max it can do, then something pushes it over and the game crashes to save the card from possible damage (or lockup). This tends to happen when you've modded the game heavily, the game is poorly optimized and "leaks" over time, or you have the settings higher than the VRAM can handle (some games like GTA V require over 4GB of VRAM for higher settings now).

I'm afraid the only real solution is to either turn the settings down to eliminate (or delay) the crash, or upgrade to a new card with 4-6GB of VRAM. (VRAM and RAM are separate items, the VRAM is attached directly to your card, the RAM won't affect "video" memory unless its DDR4). There is a possibility there are stability patches out there that would let you run closer to that 2GB ceiling more stability, but there is no guarantee. I suppose the final question is: what game is crashing? Since some games crash *alot* lol.

well didn't , help tried it today, to minimize my graphics to the lowest but now they don't even show me any errors or signs just turns of the game. That's it.
