i have a macbook air early 2014 edition. i have installed windows 7 ultimate 64 bit on it using bootcamp but the dedicated video memory of the GPU is only 64 mb. is there a way to increase this memory to give me better performance ?

  • Is an Intel HD Graphics 5000 graphics card ok to run premier pro?

    I'm looking to buy a new iMac desktop. Due to a small budget, I am looking a purchasing the 21.5 inch, 1.4GZ, dual-core iNtel Core i5 with 8 GB memory and the Intel HD Graphics 5000 graphics card. The reason I am buying the desktop is to upgrade my workflow. I am currently using a MacBook Pro with a Intel Graphics 4000. Would buying this iMac be a big upgrade? I am looking for the best I can possibly get.

    It's all a great big family http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_GMA but with different capabilities and speeds.
    In essence your HD Graphics 3000 should be compatible and capable of running Sims-3.
    Nonetheless it might be neccessary for the developer to release a patch/update.

    Is a Intel HD Graphics 5000 with a 4GB RAM sufficient for softwares like Autoca,Revit and Sketch Up

    For something like AutoCad My preference would be at least 8 GB ram and a MacBook Pro with the discrete GPU in addition to the Intel HD integrated GPU.  Depending on the size of the work, that kind of software can make heavy demands on the graphic processor and can use a lot of memory.

    I am assuming you are talking about PPC Macs? Those haven't been manufactured or sold in years (since early 2006 I believe) when Apple started using Intel processors. There are still some apps which run on PPC code only which makes them incompatible with the last three Mac operating systems.
    There are different Applecare products depending on which Mac product you buy, although the coverage is about the same (except for iOS devices).

  • How to increase Intel HD Graphics (core i3) memory to or near it's maximum value ??

    Dear All
    I got Lenovo G560, Core i3 2.13 ghz, 3G of Ram, with Built in Intel HD Graphic card which minimum graphic memory is 32, the Maximum G.Memory is 1275, BUT the main Proplem is that the actual memory in use is Only 78 - 82 --> so I can't play any of the 512 new games like Need for Speed the RUN or Even NFS : Shift in a medium sitting (it hardly works or crashes in case of low sitting) also can't play Batman Arkham city 2011, it plays Batman arkham asylum within low sitting
    So are there anyway to raise the actual memory in use to just reach 512mb or closer to gain full advantage of my laptop graghic card ?? hope anyone got a Solution for me. !
    by the way working under win 7 home premium 32bit, running latest up to date direct X, and latest driver sofware for the intel HD Graphic display adaptor  .. Ready to increase the ram to be 4 G if that will SURE raise the actual VRAM ..

    first of all, g serie lenovos are not designed for games.
    if you have switchable graphic support ( i don't think g serie does ) try to activate it. otherwise, you have only one option that to increase the ram so shared graphic card can use more ram.

  • Games in intel hd graphics 5000

    Can anyone tell me what games we can play with a jntel hd graphics 5000?????like can we play far cry 3 or watch dogs etc????????

    I have found this in the Intel website:
    DisplayPort* 1.2 / eDP*
    H-Processors: 3840 x 2160@60Hz
    (Ultra-HD)
    U-Processors: 3200 x 2000
    @60 Hz, 3840x2160@30Hz
    Y-Processors: 2560 x 1600
    @ 60 Hz
    HDMI* 4096 x 2304, 3840x2160 @ 24Hz / 24bpp
    DVI 1920 x 1200 @ 60Hz
    I doubt that Apple disables the maximum GPU resolution, and I don't think that a firmware update will be released for that. Instead, as you can see, it looks like Y-processors don't support a resolution higher than 2560x1600, so it's possible that the MacBook Air comes with one of those processors

  • Does the standard Intel HD Graphics 4000 in the 13 inch Macbook pro stand up to other graphics cards with dedicated memory ( 1GB of memory for instance)?

    Does the standard Intel HD Graphics 4000 in the 13 inch Macbook pro stand up to other graphics cards with dedicated memory ( 1GB of memory for instance)? I need a laptop for college and the Engineering program suggests a dedicated video card with minimum 1GB of video memory.

    I have a Intel HD 4000 in my Mac Mini (late 2012), and it's okay for what I need it.
    However:
    - there were a few issues with flickering on the video output to external monitors. These were solved through a firmware update that came with OSX 10.8.3 - for the majority of the users. There is apparently still a small group of users that still has issues. You can read long threads about this here:

    and here
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4490924?start=0&tstart=0
    So for most of us (me included) this issue is solved, but it seems that certain displays / monitors don't work well with the intel HD4000, don't know if there is a pattern or a list of monitor models...
    - there was an issue with the color calibration on the HDMI output. No matter how much you tried to calibrate, the results remained unsatisfying. All light colors were crushed to white, wrong contrast, ...

    The same firmware update improved this a little, good enough for me, but I can imagine it's not good enough if you do graphic work and need reliable colors from your monitor. On HDMI output, the thunderbolt/MDP output is fine. So it's mainly a dual monitor setup issue.
    If it's for graphic work, I'd go for a Mac Book Pro with dedicated GPU !

  • Nice to see 13" retina but it has only Intel HD Graphics 4000 and does not have NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory card. How it will affect the speed, performance and other things compared to 15" retina where NVIDIA GeForce card is available.

    The 15" Retina's will have better performance than any 13" Retina. Not only do the 15" machines have dedicated GPU's, but they also have quad-core processors, whereas the 13" Retina's only have dual-core processors.

  • Intel hd graphics on windows 7 problem

    boot camp support software does not contain driver for intel hd graphics 3000 for windows.
    I have the early 2011 macbook pro 15" which has intel hd grapics 3000 and amd radeon hd 6490M.
    I've installed windows 7 home premium 64-bit in my macbook pro.
    now my video memory in windows is just 240 MB.
    I use windows for gaming.
    but video memory here is too low for good performance.
    I downloaded a driver from intel official site.
    But when i try to install it says "system does not meet the minimum requirements".
    But my system has all requirements it asked for.:(
    Someone please help me get a solution.
    Give me the direct link through which i can download driver for my intel hd graphics.
    Does apple provide a direct driver download of intel graphics for windows.??
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Pls help me out.

    ya you are right.
    but will aplle give some updates for installing drivers of intel hd graphics on windows.
    its because i use the graphics card only for gaming but mac doesn't support much games and i'm in India so the shops rarely have games for mac for sale.
    so i'm forced to do gaming in mac this makes me to need high graphics in windows but the video memory of the radeon graphics low for gaming .
    so this makes me annoying.
    i hope to get the best from apple's side.
    thanks in advance to apple if they give a driver update for intel hd graphics on windows.

  • No video memory. no memory acceleration for Intel HD graphics. what now?

  • Windows 8 and Boot Camp 5 with Mid-2011 iMac12,2 DISABLING INTEL HD GRAPHICS

    There seems to be some issue with this newer Boot Camp 5 and Windows 8 becuase of the Intel HD graphics in the processor. I have a maxed out Intel iMac 27" Mid-2011 with Intel Core i7 and AMD Radeon 6970M 2GB.
    When Windows 8 Pro is first installed with Boot Camp 5 USB flash drive everything seems fine. The Intel HD graphics are detected and so is the AMD Radeon. But if the machine is put to sleep the computer resumes and has a BSOD. The reason is igdkmd64.sys.
    I think the only way I know of to solve this is to disable the Intel HD graphics in Device Manager before the machine begins crashing. On "first" boot the Intel HD graphics are listed in device manager. Later depending on restart, sleep, hibernate, the Intel HD graphics are listed under hidden devices in Device Manager.
    IS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCING THIS?
    DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE A SOLUTION BESIDES THIS?

    I don't know if it's just my iMac that lists the Intel HD graphics, but one day it showed up in Windows 7 and still exists today in Windows 8. Could somebody see if theirs shows up in Windows in Device Manager? Maybe with Show Hidden Devices checked.
    BTW I did a clean install and left the boot camp usb flash drive inserted during the install which automatically installs intel hd and bluetooth and then start boot camp drivers installs after Windows setup is completed.
