hi. my gpu is a geforce 8500 gt with 256 megs of ram. i have 3 gigs of total ram and the gpu is taking 1.2 gigs of that for shared video ram. is this too much? the bios for my gateway gt5628 has no option to reduce this? is there another way to do it? thank you.1.5 gigs of vid ram too much?

Are u sure that it is sharing ? the vid come with it's own mem don't need to shear
if ur running vista and thats what it says dont worry about it
[QUOTE=''AwA-soldier'']Are u sure that it is sharing ? the vid come with it's own mem don't need to shear[/QUOTE]those are the default settings. i can't imagine any of today's games needing that much vram. i'm just afraid that most of it is being wasted when it could be useful to my cpu. is there any way to change this?
