        The AMD Radeon Vega 8 is an integrated graphics processor used in the AMD Ryzen 5-series main processors for laptops. The Radeon Vega 8 can be used for light gaming. It offers performance similar to basic graphics of common laptop processors, such as the Intel UHD graphics of the Intel Core CPUs. A step up in the AMD Radeon Vega line is the Vega 10 of the Ryzen 7 chips, offering improved performance, but still in the light gaming category.

              If you’re asking about real / physical memory of the Vega 3, it doesn’t have any. It uses the main RAM memory of the computer, with amount of it depending on a task. I’m not sure the maximum amount of RAM Vega 3 can utilize, but 2GB usage is generally often supported by modern integrated graphics processors such as the Vega 3.

                    The Vega 8 integrated graphics of the AMD Ryzen processors doesn’t have its own dedicated video memory. It uses the main system memory (RAM) for graphics rendering purposes.

                              On GTA V 30-40fps
                              Valorant 60-70fps
                              Csgo 60-70fps
                              The witcher 3 30fps
                              Add a dual channel ram to get 8-17 more fps on GTA V, VALORANT, CSGO but not on The Witcher 3 cause you know it’s a heavy game

                                That is not true. The Vega 8 has 512mb dedicated memory and a 1.7gb shared video memory

                                        Yes,with Vsyn on On Valorant, I get 60, but Vsyn off gives me 80–120Fps @1080p Such a OP piece of Hardware Vega 8 is !

                                            Yeah sure at low settings 1080p the game runs lag free smooth.

                                              No sorry you cannot do that, infact it’s impossible to increase dedicated vram more than what it initially comes with, but yes you can definitely overclock.

                                                        Instead of the processor’s video card, the normal video card is more efficient, but if you are going to buy it, get intel hd graphics and if you are going to collect a better case, get a threedepeer 3990x

However game performance is not determined by vram because the vram is still extracted from system memory. However if you use dual channel ram, that is, 2 ram modules of the same capacity and speed, you will get a 15-30% increase in performance. Note that the fixed vram capacity is extracted from the ram hence it is unavailable for use in Windows.

It is possible to have a PC without a dedicated video card, if the main processor features integrated graphics. By the way, if you’re referring to a laptop computer, then graphics and the main processor are not upgradeable.

So, it is possible to have more than 512MB of shared memory with the Vaga 8. Usually, laptops with the Vega 8 and other integrated graphics processors have in their BIOS settings an option to set maximal RAM amount that laptop’s GPU can use.

Most laptops have in their BIOS settings an option to set maximal RAM amount that integrated graphics can take.

                                                                                                                    As far as I know Magicbook 14 has HDMI 1.4 video output port which supports 2560×1080 resolution. However, it has a lower bandwidth than HDMI 2.0 standard, so you won’t be able to have high refresh rates for extra smooth motion like 120Hz or 144Hz at 2560×1080. In theory, HDMI 1.4 supports 2560×1080 at 100Hz max. The most common refresh rate used by external monitors is 60Hz, so if your monitor is at 60Hz you don’t need a higher refresh rate anyway.

                                                                                                                    As for the Vega 8 itself, I wasn’t able to find info on maximal refresh rates, but modern GPUs like the Vega 8 regularly support 60Hz even on ultra high resolutions like 4K 3840 × 2160.

It’s uncommon that someone doesn’t inform me how a lot is owed. The poker games rely greatly on the game position.

                                                                                                                                          I can’t find that info too. Usually, modern laptops with multiple video output ports (i.e. DisplayPort via USB-C and HDMI) do support multiple external displays. So I assume Vega 8 can do that too if there are multiple video out ports on the laptop. There might be some limitations in terms of screen refresh rate, for instance multiple 4K monitors limited at 30 Hz instead of standard 60 Hz or higher.

I play gta online and i usually get 25 to 30 fps if the server is containing like 20 people. But in normal gta 5 or gta online alone session you might get 40 to 50 fps but after upgrading to 8×2 gb ram you will get 50-75 fps and in gta online you will get 35-50fps if the server is containing 20 people. Free fire i run using msi app player and i get 60 fps on training ground smooth settings. Im using a 8gb ram laptop btw 16 gb ram will increase performance and you can set the game at medium or ultra settings shadow off and you should get around 50fps. You can also increase performance by overclocking your processor by ryzen controller. Idk how to overclock it but i know that for overclocking you should have a cooling pad or you can get your laptop too hot that it can fry eggs in it. But if you have cooling pad and you overclock it then the performance will increase more and you will not have any problem running both of the games. I hope you understand now

Can I opt to decrease the 2gb videographics and maximize efficiency for my adobe apps and still can play dota2 in low settings w/out prob? Thanks, it would help me much.
