I have a laptop with a built-in Nvidia geforce 6150 video card. The specs state that it has 64 Mb of dedicated memory and can access 768 Mb in shared video memory. For the purpose of video game compatibility here is the question I have:
If a game requires 128 Mb in video memory, will the game (a) Work on my computer just fine, (b) work but with a performance hit because shared memory is slower than dedicated video memory, or (c) not work at all.
If the answer is (c), then I have to wonder what shared video memory actually accomplishes.
If the answer is (b), how much of a performance hit might I expect?
