B85M-G43 Integrated Graphics memory

I am using an i5-4570 processor which has the integrated HD4600 graphics capability.
Do I need to worry about the BIOS setting for "Integrated Graphics Share Memory"? It offers 32M, 64M, 128M and 256M. But the 4600 can share well over 1GB of memory. I'm wondering if this setting is relevant for this processor.
Any clarification is much appreciated.
Thank you.

That setting is not relevant. It's just the reserved system memory for the iGPU.
But that's not the video memory that will be used in an application.
HD4600 is using Dynamic Video Memory. It can allocate system memory to be used as video memory if needed for best performance.
This way the iGPU can use up to 1692 MB from the system memory. The amount of shared memory depends on the available system memory and the application demand (256 MB (1GB ram)/>783 MB (2GB ram)/1692 MB (>4 GB ram))

  • MSI-945GZM3 integrated graphics memory size?

     
    Hi there i own MSI-945GZM3 mobo, i m not sure, wat is the built-in graphics memory for this mobo? my windows detected as 32 mb only. vendor claims as 128  .. another question does this mobo support AGP card? i mean plug under pci slot? also suggest me some pci-express card which is better to use for non-gamers i m using vista beta also
    thanks

    Specs:>>LINK<<=> No AGP support.
    Compatible vid-cards: >>LINK<<
    Any card around €120,-- will do fine for any office app. But, honestly, when you don't do anything spectacular with your pc, why not stick to the onboard graphics?
    I don't know your board, but I think you can set/change video memory in BIOS.

  • Intregrated graphics memory?

    I know that the macbook has integrated graphics memory, is there a way I could manually tell my system to allot the max amount (256 mb i think it is) from my ram? I have 2 gb so it doesn't matter to me if its /always/ gonna be alloted. I just wanna have a little smooth game performance.

    meh, thanks.
    Hopefully it'll eat as much of my ram as possible xD.

  • How to tell if my laptop integrated graphics uses UMA or discrete memory?

    Hello,
    I'm looking to buy a replacement heatsink/fan assembly for my DV6-6117DX laptop as the ball bearing on my fan is dieing. Using the service manual I've narrowed it down to two parts:
    650848-001 (For use only with computer models equipped with an AMD A8, A6, or A4 processor and a graphics subsystem with discrete memory)
    650847-001 (For use only with computer models equipped with an AMD A8, A6, or A4 processor and a graphics subsystem with UMA memory)
    I'm just not sure whether my laptop's integrated graphics uses discrete memory or UMA memory. The processor is an AMD Quad-Core A8-3500M with integrated AMD Radeon HD 6620G Discrete-Class Graphics. This is copied from the HP specs page. Does the "discrete-class graphics" imply that it uses discrete memory?
    Thanks for any help!

    In my original post, I've already narrowed it down to one of two parts. My CPU is the AMD A8, my GPU is the AMD 6620G. I just don't know how to tell if my graphics use discrete memory or UMA memory, which will decide between the two heatsink/fan parts.
    Put this way if you have AMD video that is the discrete video and you most likely can't upgrade that video if that what your thinking of doing. It should have 1-2gigs of Video RAM that what it usualy comes with but that doesn't qualify it for a Gaming laptop if that is what your looking do to. Gaming laptops cost upwards to 2000US for decent game play and those Video are the higher end video chipset. And if you want to know if you have shared memory with the video look at your UEFI or Bios and look for shared video memory and you will have more insight into the video itself.

  • 1866mhz Memory in B85M-G43

    Hey,
    I was planning to purchase a B85M-G43 motherboard soon. My question is, with an i5-4670, will the motherboard work with 1866mhz memory at that speed.
    Thank you.

    Dear Gg61,
    Based on Intel SPEC, B85 does not support CPU overclocking. That is, the system will run 1600Mhz even when you populate 1866Mhz.
    If you want to run 1866Mhz, please choose Z87M-G43.

    Hope this information is helpful for you.

  • Z77a g43 | i5 2500k | Disable integrated graphics

    As the title states how do I disable integrated graphics from the bios on my z77a g43 motherboard running a 2500k. Finally got a dedicated video card Radeon HD 7870 

    Don't want it warming up the CPU (Overclocker a few degrees can make a difference ) and to get optimal performance out of my Radeon 7870.
    And yeah the Radeon is already up and running.
    So I'm guessing there's no way of completely disabling it from bios?

  • MSI B85M-G43 could not detect Gigabyte R929OC 4GB 3X Windforce

    I recently build a new PC a month ago and have been using it for 3 weeks then random black screens problem started to occur.
    It started right around the time after I updated to catalyst 14.4 w/o the beta. At the same time i noticed windows update has updated some files which i did not note down what it was. Also Noticed that startup list had some new programs running.
    I proceeded to disable the programs in startup, undo the latest windows update and finally reinstalled windows 8.1
    Nothin works and I am left with black screen, which i realised that to be actually the mobo not detecting the card once i got a vga screen plugged in to mobo onboard graphics and went to BIOs to see.
    Previously my BIOs were updated to latest through the liveupdate 5 program, which itself updated to liveupdate 6. For some reason I dont like programmes sitting at the back constantly checking for updates, so after updating those, I deleted all those programs. The updates also took forever to download, I figured i will download/install individually in future. Now that I do a search there is no live update 6?
    Just to make sure, I have reflashed the BIOs to E7823IMS v3.6 again through the m-flash inside BIOs, but did not choose the BIOs + ME option as i dont know what it is. After reboot, BIOs version remained there, checked for ME and there's the version number 9.0.21.1462.
    BIOs version:  E7823IMS v3.6
    ME version: 9.0.21.1462
    Prior to the Win8.1 reinstall, my OS was sitting on my SSD in non UEFI mode, I chose to install in non-uefi as i dont know what it was then. When i tried to reinstall, somehow the boot priority identified the SSD as UEFI first, so i wanted to give it a try and proceeded to install win8.1 in UEFI until reboot failed. Then I decided to installed my win8.1 on my HD in non UEFI instead. The system, as usual, works using the integrated graphics and mobo could not detect the graphics card in the only PCIe 3.0 x16 slot. Should I plug it into the PCIe 2.0 x16 slot and try, It never occur to me until now as I thought that was the only slot my graphics card could use.
    Please help 
    Here are my specs:
    MSI B85M-G43
    Intel i7-4770 3.4GHz
    G.Skill Ripjaw 1600MHz (2 x 8)MB Blue
    SSD Samsung Evolution 240GB
    WD 1TB Blue
    Gigabyte R929OC 4GB 3X Windforce
    LG 24x DVD Writer
    Corsair Carbide Air 540 Case
    SeaSonic G-750 80+ GOLD Power Supply
    ASUS PCE-N53 PCI-E Adapter
    Windows 8.1 OEM
    Qnix QX2710 Evolution II 27" matte PLS monitor (uses dual-DVI-D connector only)

    try to update your bios again but use the BIOS + ME option as it will flash not only your bios but Intel ME at the same time.
    Note: Don't remove your USB during bios flash as the system will restart for I think around 2 times and plugging out USB might kill the MB bios.
    Did you modify any settings in the bios setup??
    If updating bios not can't work, try to plug your card to second PCIE slot and see if it could boot or not.

  • Qosmio F750 - How to change dedicated graphics memory to 2GB...

    In order to get my Qosmio F750 ready to run some games, I have updated all of the drivers on via the toshiba website and NVIDIA website while also downloading the relevant software. This includes updating the BIOS to version 2.00.
    According to the [laptop specifications given on the Toshiba website|http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/products/computers/qosmio/f750/pqf75a-02y00q/specifications],
    I should have the following allocation of memory to the graphics:
    "4095MB Total: 2048MB dedicated memory + 2047MB shared memory"
    When I go to check the Performance Information and Tools window, I get shown the following information:
    Graphics
    Display adapter type Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000
    Total available graphics memory: 1696 MB
    Dedicated graphics memory: 64 MB
    Dedicated system memory: 0 MB
    Shared system memory: 1632 MB
    Display adapter driver version: 9.18.13.1422
    Primary monitor resolution: 1366x768
    DirectX version: DirectX 10
    Of course, when I look carefully at the laptop specifications, I realize that the current graphics memory allocation corresponds to the Power Saving Mode i.e. graphics allocation when running on battery power
    Normally this would be fine, however, I do not see any change in the info displayed even when I am running on AC power.
    I have checked all of my power settings but even when everything is set to 'performance mode', the information displayed stays the same.
    I try to look in the system bios to manually change the graphics allocation but no such option exists. Rather all options are set to performance mode...
    So my ultimate question is, *How can I change the graphics memory allocation to performance mode as indicated in the system specifications?*
    Is this something that occurs automatically without changing the displayed info?
    Is there a driver that I have forgotten to update? Has a driver update caused this?
    Has a BIOS update caused this?
    On a side note, when checking the DirectX Diagnostic Tool, I the directx version is displayed as version 11. So I thought the issue was with the displayed information. But even on the Diagnostic Tool gives me the same info.
    I would be very grateful if someone could help me out with this.
    Thanks,
    Omair

    Okay I think I get it now.
    The Performance Info and Tools Window only shows the information on the Intel HD Graphics 3000.
    When the specs sheet says power saving mode it means graphics using only the Intel HD Graphics.
    However because of Optimus, the notebook can use either the Intel GRaphics card or the nVidia GPU.
    The performance mode in the specs sheet refers to when the notebook is using the nVidia GPU.
    The integrated gpu and the dedicated gpu do not run at the same time but Optimus switched between the 2 of them whenever the situation requires it. Whatever it switches to decides which 'mode' the notebook is using. The memory allocations for these 'modes' will match those of the specs sheet.
    But any information about the graphics memory will not change as it only displays the info on the integrated gpu.
    Well, I can finally understand what the previous posts were referring to and why the posts themselves were pretty short (there wasn't any problem needing to be fixed!).
    Thank you for all of your help Randy, Akuma and PauPau

  • Systemd multiseat with NVidia card and Intel integrated graphics

    I'm trying to set up multiseat Gnome 3 on a system running the nvidia proprietary drivers. The first seat on the nvidia GPU is working fine. For the second seat I'm trying to use an integrated Intel GPU, but all I get is the GDM "Oh no, something has gone wrong" screen. I'm not sure why, but I suspect it could be because the intel driver is also trying to load nvidia's libglx.so:

    Unfortunately the config file for the second X server is /run/systemd/multi-session-x/seat1, which is not persistent. Is there any other way to get a different config file to the second X server, so I can force it to load the default libglx.so?
    For completeness, output of seat-status is as follows:
    seat1
    Sessions: *c1
    Devices:
    ├─/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0

    One thing you can do to ensure highest perfomance on games is go to the Nvidia Control Panel, Manage 3D Settings, Programs, then find the game you want and set it to use only NVIDIA High Performance (or Discrete) graphics. You can't use both cards at the same time as of writing this (DirectX 11), but with the arrival of Windows 10 and DirectX 12 on July 29 you will be able to use both at once to increase performance. Until then, though, it is simply not possible to use both at once. The best option is to just use the GTX 860M.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - OpenGL 2.0 support for Intel Integrated Graphics

    Just want to share the news that I was able to install the new Intel Chipset drivers that add OpenGL 2.0 support to their integrated graphics chips, such as the X3100.
    This driver was released in December 2008 and even though Intel recommends waiting for OEM versions from Toshiba, I decided to try theirs.
    Links and more info are found in this thread:

    Maybe someone will try the exe file installation and report back -
    I followed the manual installation instructions and for now everything works fine.

    Hi mate
    First of all thanks a lot
    Ive got a U400 and I have installed a Intel graphic card driver from the Intel page too.
    I didnt execute the exe file but I updated my driver in device manager.
    This worked fine.
    Also I read here in the forum that drivers from external pages can be used only at the own risk because such drivers are not tested and not certified by Toshiba
    However, my U400 run trouble free till now.

  • MacBook Pro 13,3 and 15,4 : graphic memory

    I would like to buy a MacBook Pro but I'm worried about the graphic memory. On the MacBook Pro 13,3 tech specs I can read:
    "NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory"
    Shared? Does this mean that the video card hasn't got dedicated RAM?
    On the other hand in the MacBook Pro 15,4 tech specs I can read:
    "NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics processor with 256MB of GDDR3 memory on 2.4GHz; Intel HD Graphics with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory"
    Please could you explain me what does they mean with "shared" memory?
    How about performance? Usually NB has a lot more video memory such as 1GB...

    As I wrote above, I've been doing lots of work in Adobe CS4 applications using the integrated GPU and *its 256MB of "shared" RAM (not really shared, because only the GPU can use it)*. I have 4GB of RAM installed, and I'm getting my work done just fine in 3.75GB of it.
    If nothing we can say will reassure you, then you'd better buy some other computer.
    Precisely. It appears that the integrated graphics engine has 256MB of dedicated memory available, but it's advertised as "shared" because it comes from the (main) system memory. In reality, it's not the 256MB of graphics memory that's being "shared", it's the 4GB of system RAM that's being shared
    And 4GB is plenty of RAM.
    Also consider this: the discrete graphic cards available on the 2.4Ghz and 2.53Ghz 15" MBP come with 256MB of dedicated RAM. Only the top two configurations have 512MB of RAM available (the i7 15" and the 17" models).
    You should be fine.

  • X200 4500MHD Graphics Memory

    Is there anyway to increase the memory on the video card in the X200's 4500MHD graphics?  I tried looking for something in BIOS but I couldn't find anything.  According to device manager, it's only using 32MB.  I have 4GB so I'd like to allocate at least 512MB.

    there is no real way of doing this, as the video memory allocation is arranged by the software. But under 3D settings of the Intel display tray, you can increase the memory footprint from normal to high. Also, with the integrated graphics card more vram won't improve your graphics performance. This is akin to putting a bigger wheel to a stock standard toyota corolla, in hope to gain faster performance.

  • Graphics memory upgrade

    Is it possible to upgrade the graphics memory on the new 27" iMACs? They give the option of 1 or 2 GB of memory but is that one of those soldered in components or can memory be added after the purchase?

    The graphics options are a custom build option only. The graphics have to be chosen prior to purchase.
    True, however, that doesn't mean that that the video card as a spare part doesn't exist. The video is not integrated onto the logic board as it is on other systems like the notebooks. 

  • Total available graphics memory not detected

    I was trying to connect my notebook to tv useing HDMI cable, got message - no signal, and it said to check my drivers. I checked display adapter and monitor driver, it says they are up to date.
    In performance information and tools it says - total available graphics memory not detected.
    In control panel/display/advanced settings - graphics card is listed.

    Hi,
    The following link shows its specs:
        http://www8.hp.com/emea_africa/en/products/laptops/product-detail.html?oid=7427730#!tab=specs
    It uses:
    Graphics   Integrated:
      Intel® HD Graphics
    And information is right with 64MB of VRAM. System will assign available system RAM to graphics up to max allowed when required.  Please try to hit F4 to send signals to monitor.
    Regards.

  • K8MM3-V Integrated Graphics

    I have checked the manual and the MSI site but still can't work out what the "integrated graphics" on the motherboard is equivalent to.  Bios gives you the option of 16,32,64 of shared memory but that is the most I can find out.  Can anyone give me and idea of how good the on-board graphics is (or what it is comparable to i.e. TNT2, MX400 ) ?

    Integrated VIA UniChrome™ Pro IGP
    - Dual pixel pipelines
    - 128-bit 2D/3D engine
    - 200MHz engine clock speed
    - 16-64MB shared memory
    Optional external AGP 8X/4X port
    MPEG-2 hardware acceleration
    More like a cheapo laptop graphics setup.
