VRAM or random access video memory is actually similar to regular RAM, but is designed for the GPU. It is generally much faster than standard RAM because it is used to store textures and graphics data that are displayed on the computer. The more VRAM your computer has, the more complex images it can load. You’re probably wondering how much VRAM I have in window ten?
