    Everyone,

    I have noticed that windows xp and pcmark05 is reporting that I have 512mb of local memory for my graphics card. Is this possible???? Did lenovo put to much ram? Just doesn't make sense.

    Please take 10 minutes of your time to do some research; topics such as this have been brought up too many times to count.

    Which levono is it? the 15.4'' T61p is supposed to have 256MB of GDDR3. 512MB is probably slower DDR2

    sszero, good point. I researched and my vid card is 256mb ddr3 and borrowing an additional 256mb from the system.

    jcms, It's a brand new T61p ordered from Lenovo.

    Thanks
