Upgrading RAM to 2GB to compensate for small ATI 9000 32MB?

#1 Post by Delmarco » Sun Mar 12, 2006 10:08 am

Can I improve the video performance of my miniscule ATI 9000 32 MB graphic card by upgrading my RAM from 768 MB to 2GB?


Also is there a process for upgrading the ATI 9000 from 32 MB to a more MBs? say 64 MB or 128 MB?

I haven't seen it discussed anywhere.
Thanks guys,
Delmarco

To acomplish that you will have to replace the entire motherboard, like i did. See at my Signature.
