You should know how to check your VRAM on Windows 10, whether using one of the best or cheap gaming laptops. Knowing how much VRAM (Video RAM) you have is essential, especially when you play top-tier games like Resident Evil Village or Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and Call of Duty, or if you want to perform specific GPU-intensive tasks like 3D modeling.

It has its advantage if your computer has its own dedicated graphics cards. VRAM is separate from the physical RAM, reserved for memory functions about Display and graphics. Different graphics cards have different amounts of VRAM. So, the more VRAM a graphics card has, the better it is since more VRAM means a graphics card can handle more graphic and display operations simultaneously.

Moreover, on Windows 10, users can quickly check how much VRAM they have on their computer using the settings app and DxDiag. This risewindows article will elaborate on preventing the VRAM with both methods.
