Windows 10: Disable system shared memory for DEDICATED graphics card

I have searched for a while and I always see the same answers... Either "it doesnt matter, it will use it when it needs it" or "its in the bios". The 2nd one is only right for INTEGRATED graphics cards, but Im talking about a GTX 960.

I had 8 GB of RAM and a demanding game worked a bit choppy. I installed a second 8 GB stick and it worked very smoothly... Then I formatted the PC, installer everything as always, tried every configuration, but it is not as smooth as before. In properties in graphics card says "system shared memory 8 GB", so my bet is that it runs out of its 3 GB of this demanding game, then taps on that, which makes it slow, instead of unloading textures.

I want to disable it, because of the same reason I disable the page file... But I cannot find an answer beside the dodging ones...

I might be wrong and this might not be the problem, but I have tried everything and set everything as I had before. The only difference is that I formatted with 16 GB of RAM instead of 8 installed, thats the ONLY difference.

Laptop NVIDIA GeForce Card - Dedicated Memory


Anything in bold is copy pasted from information elsewhere.

Laptop Acer Aspire v3-772g
Windows 10
NIVIDIA GeForce GT 750m

Systemrequirementslab.com sometimes spits at me that I have 3gb or 4gb dedicated video memory on my card, and sometimes 1gb.

So I dediced to find out myself.

----------------------
Start -> Run -> Msinfo32 -> Components -> Display:

I have 2.
One is obviously my Intel HD Graphics 4600
"Adapter RAM 1.00 GB (1,073,741,824 bytes)"
1 GB on the intel HD graphics sounds about right?

And the other is my NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M
"Adapter RAM (1,048,576) bytes"


What's going on here msinfo32 suggests my card has 1 MB of memory?
This laptop's graphics card should have 3 GB or 4 GB dedicated video memory.

Am I misunderstanding how my system memory is used? Does it somehow use some of that ram as dedicated memory to my card as well? I haven't changed any settings nor know how to.
"Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 16.0 GB"
--------------------------------------------
NVIDIA Control Panel:
Help -> System Information -> Scroll down to the info:
"Total available graphics memory: 12228 MB"
"Dedicated video memory: 4096 MB DDR3"
"System video memory: 0MB"
"Shared system memory: 8132 MB"

Ok this is looking more reasonable? What is lying to me and why?
----------------------


Can someone explain to me please. I'm rather tech savvy usually with myself under going study for ICT, mainly networking etc.
Any explanation would help greatly thanks. Or directions to help change or fix what ever is going on if it's not correct.

AMD FM1 built-in graphic card shared memory in Windows 10


Where do I set the shared system memory for AMD FM1 built-in graphic card on Windows 10?
As I know, the main board have a dedicated memory for 1GB and shared system memory for 4GB.
My PC have 8GB RAM. I think it is more than enough the shared system memory. I want to set it to 2GB shared memory + 1GB dedicated RAM. In the BIOS settings, I set it to maximum shared memory.
My monitor is 1080p x 1920 resolution via HDMI cable.
I am not a gamer, never play any games. Only YouTube for HD, sometimes FHD.

Thank you

 

Intel HD Graphics 4600 Dedicated Video Memory


Sorry this isn't exactly about graphics cards.

I can't seem to increase my dedicated video memory for integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600, even though I have put it up to 1024MB (1GB) in my BIOS. My Total Available Graphics Memory is 7786MB, and my Shared System Memory is 7658MB. However, no matter how much I change it in the BIOS, my Dedicated Video Memory (DVM) is always stuck at 128M. Is this a integrated graphics thing or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.
