How much GPU do i really have?

Go to solution Solved by Sharkyx1,

Intel graphics have no actual vram, it just uses your system memory 

 

Install the program "gpu-z" for more accurate info, but the simple answer is you have 4GB of Vram attatched to your 940mx, and when you exceed that anything over 4gb will be stored in main memory, which is slow and bad.

It's most likely your CPU's integrated graphics, however when you play games it will use your installed gpu that is in the pci bus, if your gpu is uninstalled it will use cpu graphics. It is not recommended to play games with cpu integrated graphics, besides minecraft maybe.
