Hello! I recently changed my pc to one with i7-4770 and I am waiting for my video, using the integrated graphics. All drivers seem to be up to date and I allocated 512 using RAM. I have 8 RAM, so 512 VRAM uses 4 GB. Is it safe to increase it up to 1GB VRAM using all the 8 RAM? PLEASE HELP I AM DYING INSIDE WITHOUT 1 VRAM.

Hi,
Also here is another resource with more information, How to Increase Dedicated Video RAM (VRAM) in Windows 10.

Hello, Evan's article didn't help me out since I already know how to increase it. The question was if I can increase it to 1024 since
256 = 2GB ram
512 = 4GB ram
1024 = 8GB ram *should be*
and I have 8 RAM on my PC currently.
veeg's article was useful but not with the things I am in need right now. The question was if I am able to increase it 1024 if my PC has only 8 RAM. Is it safe and is it going to work?

I am not sure if your motherboard's BIOS will allow you to increase it 1024 MB's for the VRAM but if you have 8 GB's of memory to pool from then yes 8 GB's will be enough to use at least 1 GB of it as VRAM. Just set the GPU memory to the maximum allocation and see how much of your system RAM it uses.

Just open Task Manager and look at how much RAM your system has available. If you have more than 6GB's of RAM available to use then you are good.
