    My compaqs NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 allocated RAM has three choices from128MB to 64MB to 32MB memory (RAM) . Which one would give the best performance? I'm assuming that 128MB would. I have 2GB 667Mhz DDR Memory installed so there is plenty to spare.

    Why or why not?

    Go ahead and let it use the 128MB RAM, you'll squeeze a little more performance out of it, and your system won't lose any performance for the little memory you are allocating to the vid card.

    128 MB will give the best performance ... I believe that it takes RAM as needed, so setting it to 128, especially as you have 2GB, would be the best way to go.
