    Does the Vaio FE-890 have a 256MB geforce 7600 video card option? Are all the 7600's 128MB?

    I think it has the 128 MB Go7600. Not sure about it though.

    I think that there are 256 mb 7600's out there, in fact I am almost 99% sure, check some reviews or nVidia probably has it listed on their site.

    Yeah, there are 256MB models made by Nvidia, but does the Vaio FE-890 have a 128 or a 256? I can't find the answer on the Sony website, it just says with 2 gigs of ram the total video memory available (dedicated plus shared) is 399MB.

    This is a Geforce Go 7600 we're talking about here, in case there was confusion.

    128mb dedicated is enough juice. You can set it to take additional ram from ur CPU

    I've checked the Sony's bios and it doesn't seem like you can add more ram to your graphics card. Where else can you do that?
