I have HP 15s i3 1215U it has something like Intel ® UHD GRAPHICS i don’t know what is it like what’s the gpu exactly it doesn’t describe what’s the storage like is it 128mb? It’s integrated i don’t have dedicated one of or is 620UHD?

          VRAM is an old term that refers to the memory on a video card. You don’t have any VRAM, your GPU shares the system memory.

          In terms of games, you have the equivalent of a 10-15 year old Nvidia card. If a game lists actual hardware requirements and it isn’t from the 2000s, you’re not going to meet them most likely. Look into getting an actual GPU card.

            I get like 30-40 fps in GTA 5 or it’s not that bad like that I just fear the system problems that leads to the overloading the hardware if such a thing Exists

      It’s not storage, but memory. Storage refers to your hard drive or SSD. Memory is where processors pit data to work on.

      In your case the iGPU is reserving a portion of your system RAM, likely between 128MB and 1GB. Windows will report this as “hardware reserved.”

      You can probably change or at least view how much it is set to reserve in the BIOS. For example, my laptop with 32GB of RAM and a Ryzen 9 6980HS (radeon 680M graphics) reports 2.1GB as hardware reserved and the BIOS is set to allow 2048MiB (2GiB or about 2.1GB) for the iGPU to use.

      It should say in Task Manager on the GPU section in the performance tab (2nd tab) and it should be located all the way to the bottom right.

      It’s possible your Laptop let’s you change the amount of video RAM (vRAM) that’s allocated on your iGPU through the BIOS menu.

      ============================================

      Be warned that the more vRAM you have the more it will take from your system memory as iGPUs only take system RAM rather than have designated vRAM in their unit

      The difference between a dGPU and iGPU is that one is just a plain simple unit inside your processor (iGPU) meanwhile the other has the extra functions a GPU needs to maximize it’s workload (dGPU) as it’s also the only ones that can be Overclocked without problems on your main system.

      Overclocking an iGPU would lead to a potential system crash

      Overclocking a dGPU would lead to a video crash rather than a system one.
