The ace graphics cards They are one of the most expensive components of our PC, and can sometimes double the price of the CPU itself, which is why we often want to know, when we bought it, that we actually received what we wanted. For this reason, today we are going to teach you how much memory your chart has, to avoid any type of problems that we may encounter.
When we have a printing house of the latest generation, there are times when it is necessary to check what power it can offer us, lest at some point it is insufficient (spoiler, it will not be the case), and to do this, we need to know if the technical specifications that we so much on paper, are applied to reality. This is why we can often resort to a reference
How to find out the memory of a graph
There are many ways to do this, since we have dozens of programs that are used to monitor the components of our computer, either to check that they are working as they should, or simply to know at any time what their specifications are in case you I want to know if we can buy a game or not. To do this, we will show you the simplest ways to do this.
Windows Task Manager
Generally, if we have this operating system, it is normal that we know this very useful program, but if you do not know it, do not worry, because it is extremely simple to use, and also, thanks to the fact that it is integrated into the operating system itself, this saves us from having to download third-party software.
To check how much memory our chart has, just follow these simple steps:
- First we need to open the program, we can do this in several ways,
- Press Windows key + R and type taskmgr
- Press CTRL+ALT+DEL and click where it says task manager
- Press the Windows key and search for “Task Manager”
- After that, the program will open, and we just have to look for the “Performance” tab and once here we will find the GPU section where we can check in the title “Dedicated GPU memory” the amount of VRAM our card has chart.
System information
If you want to know exactly how much memory your graphics card has, there is another way to do it in Windows that will allow us to know the exact number of VRAM bytes our video card has, system information, where we can also find all the specifications of the rest of the components.
To check it this way, just search for “System Information” in the Windows search engine, and after opening the program, click on components>screen and here we can see everything we need to know.
Know the amount of memory our graphics card with GPU-Z has
As we know, there are several external programs that allow us to see all our components, but GPU-Z shows us in detail everything that our graphics card has, as well as the technologies with which it is compatible.
To use this program, you just have to download it since its installation is optional, since it also works portable. Once started, it will show us everything we need to know about our chart, as well as any other options we want to look at.
