good idea

Zob

they should make a seperate ram slot for vram for intergrated graphics like you pop in a low profile 16gb ram stick and u have 16gbs of vram for intel hd graphics but it would only be good for the mini itx boards with no pci slot

They have this, it's called normal RAM slots. Your integrated graphics use a portion of your system RAM, so if you want more memory for it, you can usually just allocate it in BIOS.

Though... there is a limit. You can't just pop in 32GB of RAM and allocate half of it as VRAM. I think most integrated solutions allocate at max 1GB. 512MB seems more common especially on laptops.

To be fair, heavy gaming and content creation is not what iGPU's were meant for. They were meant to allow you to watch 4K video on an ultra book, to be able to conduct a video call smoothly, display a word doc, hell even many programmers don't need a dGPU as compiling can't use it anyway.

 

Intel HD has come along way. With XE graphics now maybe larger memory allocation will become more common.
