Vista 64 bit memory usuage question

Dicehunter · 29 Sep 2008 at 14:33

Ok im just wondering but seeing as a 32bit os can only use 3.5gb of total system memory and 64 can use a lot more, does the g'card count towards system memory and if so how, thanks in advance

I don't think it does in 64bit Vista

not in 64bit but in 32 bit yes.

it probably does in 64bit, but the limit is 128Gb (in windows xp64 it is anyway), so it'll be a few years until your graphics card counts towards that

Yeah I think the limit is 128GB on x64 - so your video card is probably going to take 1GB at the most, leaving you room for 127GB RAM.

Which I don't think you'll reach anytime soon.
