VRAM & Game Performance

VRAM (Video RAM) is dedicated memory on your graphics card that stores textures, frame buffers, and game assets. Higher VRAM allows for sharper textures at high resolutions (1440p/4K) and prevents stuttering in modern AAA games. 8GB is minimum for 1080p, 12GB+ recommended for 1440p, and 16GB+ for 4K gaming.
