Recommended Graphics memory for Games

1,117 Views

Hello,

I have the Core i3 530 processor along with the Intel HD graphics (with latest drivers) on my desktop. I have 4GB DDR3 RAM.My maximum graphics memory is 1434 mb, minimum is 32 mb.

When I run games which need MINIMUM 256 mb graphics memory and RECOMMENDED 512 mb graphics memory, the DVM allocates 256 mb for sure, so I can run the game but on low graphics. When I increase the graphics settings in the game, the DVM allocates around 280 mb but not 512. The quality is great but the gameplay is affected and the game does not run smooth.

Is there any other solution to getting the recommended requirements of the game satisfied?

Please help. Thank you!!
