Nvidia GeForce 210 4GB?

[Stylin80]

I am planning on upgrading my horrible GPU from GeForce 210 to something more decent. However, before I decide on upgrading my GPU, I checked the details of my GPU through dxdiag. I noticed something weird. On the Approx. Total Memory, it say it is 4050MB. Shouldn't it be 512 or 1024 MB only? Why is it 4050MB?

Here is a picture of it.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Its wrong - http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-210/specifications - 512mb

Its a shared memory. Just use GPU-z to see real dedicated memory.

The GT 210 is a 1GB Vram
The 4050MB you have there is most likely a different type of memory
I have a GT610m that has 1GB of Vram and in DxDiag the Approx Total Memory is 3096MB

As for upgrading
I recommend the GTX 960,970,980,780,760,750/ti
Also the r7 260x, r9 270/x,r9 280/x, r9 290/x, r9 295x2
They're all decent cards that should fit in most budgets
