My questions are what kind of vram would that require? I currently have gtx s 3 vram in a sli configuration connected by dvi-d. If those couldn't run it would adding a third card even help? I know vram doesn't stack but that's all I really know on the subject.

Help is appreciated and thanks in advance. Dec 9, 15, 1 57, 1, JackNaylorPE :. I wouldn't mind seeing the 6GB Titans tested at this res tho. LOA Honorable. Mar 10, 0 10, 3.

Unlike RAM, it is no longer possible to add more video ram to your system or graphics card. Finally, the VRAM is integrated directly into your graphics cards.

The more video ram you have, the more graphics-related data your GPU will be able to access quickly, and the faster the frames can be sent to your monitor. Depending on how you use your computer, your system may require more or less video ram. These are the most common factors that have the most significant impact on how much VRAM you need:. As you can see, a resolution of 4K x is much larger than P x We created this image to represent the number of pixels for each frequent screen resolution.

At the same time, it also shows you how much more demanding it is to render frames at high triggering. Looks like with just a single 4k youtube video open and my typical monitoring software, i'm at 2. Just idling without youtube open but with a couple chrome tabs and my typical chat software I'm at 1.

Load up a ton of photos and monitor your vram. Unless u want to 4K game and edit photos at the same time. Joined Apr 13, Messages 4, I run 3 x 4k at work and 2 at home. Mega6 said:.
