Game Changing Requirements

Video Memory (or VRAM) is a key contributor to graphics performance.  As games increase in fidelity, so do the requirements to play at maximum settings.

Headroom to Max Out Settings

High quality textures. Beautiful shaders. Immersive raytracing. Having more video memory gives you more control over dialing your in-game graphics settings to max, enabling features like raytracing, all while maintaining good frame rates. Having ample VRAM reduces visual issues that can occur, like texture pop-in.

Performance to Rule Your Game

Gaming requirements are evolving, and we don’t want you to get left behind. Be ready and confident that your PC is ready for your favorite games today and tomorrow.
