VRAM is a specific type of RAM or random-access memory as it is solely dedicated to assisting your graphics card. It's not possible to use VRAM with the rest of the computer. Instead, it focuses on helping the GPU work better.

While regular RAM reads and stores data for the CPU, VRAM completes the same job for your GPU. Generally, the more VRAM a system has, the faster it performs because it doesn't need to rely on the computer's RAM or processor as much.

Essentially, it's a buffer between the CPU and your display. It can affect frame rates in games or when video editing.

For a gaming PC, it's vital to have a graphics card with as much VRAM as you can afford. However, it's also important to check the age of the memory. Like with regular RAM, VRAM has seen numerous upgrades. Pay attention to the number in the memory type; for example, GDDR5 is newer and faster than GDDR4 and below.

Neither VRAM or RAM are better than the other. It all depends on what you plan on doing with your computer.

Someone who solely plans on using their device to type documents and browse online doesn't need to worry about having a lot of VRAM, however an avid gamer or someone who edits a lot of videos will need more VRAM to get the most from their experience.

For power users, it's important to have a sufficient amount of VRAM as well as RAM. That way, you won't have any risks with bottlenecks such as if your CPU is limited by a low amount of RAM or your GPU is limited by not much VRAM. It's important to have a well-balanced system.

4GB of VRAM can be enough, depending on your needs, but it's considered relatively low for gamers or video editors.

Typically, 4GB of VRAM makes it possible to play games at 1080p resolution, but it's likely to limit your ability to play at higher resolutions. For video-editing purposes, it's too low to easily edit files at 720p or 1080p resolution.

While it will still be possible to play games or edit videos with 4GB of VRAM, expect to see a drop in performance or quality levels which may impact your experience. That will be particularly noticeable if the 4GB of VRAM is an ageing type of VRAM such as GDDR4 or below.

8GB of VRAM should be sufficient to play games at 1440p or even at 4K resolutions. However, it's advisable to aim for 12GB of VRAM if you can afford it.

For video editors, 8GB will be enough to easily edit 720p to 1080p videos; however, you'll need more to quickly tweak 4K files.

The easiest way to increase your VRAM is to buy a new and better graphics card. In particular, if you have an integrated graphics card and plan on playing games or editing videos, you need a dedicated solution.

It is also possible to increase the VRAM via the BIOS settings. Here, you can adjust the amount of memory you want to allocate to the GPU but it doesn't actually increase VRAM. Instead, it fools the computer into thinking there is more.

Any mobile that we connect to the PC will recognize it if we have the universal drivers. The Chinese terminals have the chip.

Many brands such as Hisense, Lanix, Solone, Polaroid, and many others carry these.

You need a mobile to be connected to Windows and to be able to use the computer when you do work on it. You need to install the mt65xx drivers together with the usb drivers.

To get the driver for windows 10, 8 and 7, you have to download it and put it in a zip file.

If you are on Windows 11, 10, 8 or 8.1, you have to first do this.

The unsigned drivers do not have a digital signature from the manufacturer as in the case of the mtk preloader drivers.

The traditional way to install the mtk preloader drivers is to run the file "InstallDriver.exe" after the instructions on the screen. The drivers will be ready when the installation is over.

We are going to try to install the other drivers by right clicking on the file with the.inf exemption. If your system supports this type of installation, you should see a message that it was installed correctly.

If the previous step doesn't take effect, you have to install from another part. To add legacy hardware, we need to go to the "Device Manager", select any type of adapter, and then click on the "Action" tab.

Click "Next" in the Add Hardware Wizard window. We are going to click on the next button after selecting the second option, "Install the hardware selected manually from a list (advanced)".

The first option is to show all devices. Click on the next button and choose the drivers from the downloaded folder.

To find the folder that has the driver files, click on "Browse..." Click "open" and then "OK" to open the file after you locate it.

For example, if I want to install the preloader, I'll select the driver that we want to install. Click on "Next" and then on "Next" to start installing the PreLoader. Click "Finish" when it's done installing.
