System Information

[lunitari]

This might be a stupid question, but when I looked at my system info after I loaded up 3DMark2005, it read that there was 256 megs for texture memory, 256 megs for local video memory, but under total AGP memory, it reads 128 megs. Is this right? I looked at my BIOS, but saw nothing for AGP memory size. I have a Radeon X800 XT. Is this a problem?

There should be a BIOS setting for AGP Aperature size. 128 MB sounds right.

I checked my BIOS for the AGP aperature size, but I could not find one anywhere. My motherboard is a Gigabyte 8KNXP. I remember on other motherboards I had that there was that setting, and you could push the aperature size to 256 megs.

You can set the AGP Aperature size to 256 MB, but 64-128 MB is recommended. With a card having 256 MB of onboard memory, it is recommended that the AGP Aperature be set to 128 MB. That's what mine's set at with my 6800 GT. But, no matter what setting its set to, its not going to make that much of a difference in performance when playing games.
