[SOLVED] Would I see better performance if I increase my dedicated VRAM?

[Domeury]

Hello, I have 8GB of RAM in total, an 2GB of dedicated VRAM. if i were to change the amount of dedicated VRAM, would I see better performance in video games?

yes, I have a lot of available RAM ( about 6 gigs).

games like COD: Warzone require 2048MB minimum VRAM, so me only having 2000MB does not even meet the requirements for normal settings. So if i just were to increase the dedicated RAM in the BIOS could i be able to run the game past that requirement, or does it make no difference?

Thank you in advance

get a real gpu

wait no, thats not what i meant. i have a real gpu, i got a NVIDIA GTX 1050

then no. you can't add dedicated vram. it is hardware

which 1050 have only 2gb vram?

vram and shared memory is not the same.

im aware. but my question is, if i can add more to the VRAM and like, have less on the shared

No, you can not add VRAM in any way. Also, system RAM, both DDR3 and DDR4 is much slower than most current VRAM (GDDR5, GDDR6 and HBM), so it wouldn't be much of a performance upgrade, even if you could assign system RAM in addition to VRAM

But the short answer to your question is no, it cannot be done

you have 2048, just the min. should be ok with the lowest detail/resolution

Alr, Thank you very much for your help

The only way to add dedicated VRAM is to replace the current graphics card with one that has more.
