How do you use 2gb Video RAM?

The laptop that I'll have in 3 days will have 2gb graphic card ( Amd Radeon HD 6370M) Yes it's laptop.

So basically when you have 4gb ram you just have to use a lot of programs and slow down your PC.

In this way you'll have high usage of you computer speed. When It's hard drive just download 40 blu ray movies and it's full.

But how do get all 2gb usage out of Video Card. DO you have to Watch 20 youtube videos|||The dedicated ram on a video card fills up more when there are more complex textures on screen in need of storage. Meaning, the higher the resolution, the more pixels are involved so the more detailed something looks so the more VRAM(video ram) it'll take.



However, if you're on a laptop I'm 100% sure your max screen res is 1080p or below, and with a res like that you probably won't even fill up 1gb of vram. Which is a GOOD thing, if you run out of vram when you're gaming it'll have to pull from your actual ram which is much slower than the dedicated ram of a video card, so the game will bog down and become very sluggish.



But ye, your actual ram is just a temporary storage place for processes you have open and once closed they will unload themselves from the ram. It's nothing like a harddrive, and you should never try to fill your ram by keeping like 100+ processes open because your PC will slow down tremendously.|||RAM is random access memory...It is temporary storage used by the computer to make things run faster. 2 GB of video RAM is the max that can be used by the video card to render fast moving video. It has nothing to do with the storage in the Hard Drive. It probably will NOT use anything close to that amount. Windows automatically figures out what is needed for each device and program and allocates your RAM accordingly.



You can't use RAM only the computer does for temporary storage of data related to making programs and the computer work.



Downloading Blu-Ray movies uses space on the hard drive and NOT RAM except temporally in the downloading process to make your browser work.
