Way to increase shared max vram?

Post by Drtofu »

Hi All,
I recently got this mini pc and it works great so far. My config has 32gb of ram. the current amount of allocated ram to the igpu is 4gb. Is there a way to increase this?

I don't have this system, but I've typically found VRAM settings are configured in the BIOS. If you've already checked all the options there, it's possible it cannot be configured.
GK3V (J4125/8GB/128GB) | AMR5 (R5 5600U/16GB/512GB NVMe) | JK06 (N5100/8GB/256GB) | AK1Pro (N5105/8GB/256GB) | T8Pro (N5095/8GB/256GB) | AD03 (N95/8GB/256GB) | CK10 (i7-10810U/16GB/512GB) | S1 (N95/16GB/512GB)

It is here:

<DEL> for BIOS during startup

Go to "Advanced" tab, find and enter "AMD CBS"

Find "NBIO Common Options" and enter it

Find "GFX Configuration" and enter it

Change "iGPU Configuration" to [UMA_Specifcied]

Find "UMA Frame Buffer Size" and set to preferred size, [Auto to 16GB]

ESC to main menu, save and restart.

It is recommended not to change the video memory, as it may cause abnormal wake-up/crash/not boot.

Thank you! I'll report back to see if there's any improvements

I've only set mine to 4GB because some programs don't operate that well on dynamic. So far so good though, the 780m is fairly capable.
