Intel HD 630 Dedicated memory

[simple115]

Hello  i set the hd 630 in the bios to be 1024 mb, but in windows dedicated memory is only 128 mb. Also I'm playing Dying Light which wants 1,5 GB vram and is working quite well.Is something not right or im just stupid

intel graphics will use the shared system memory as it requires. on my laptop it has a maximum of 4GB, but it will only use that much system ram when needed.

Max allocated memory is around 3 gb. Also my pc is with 8 gb ram. And if it's usung shared system memory why i can adjust how much i want my hd 630 to have memory in the bios?

it will do it dynamically. if you have 6 gigs of stuff open, it will use the 2 gb left.
