I don't understand. You don't have a video card buy you have a Geforce 6100? Is that integrated into the mainboard? If so, then those 384 MB may be taken from the primary RAM, but they could also be apart from it, as if there were a discrete video board. Or are you asking about the "up to" part? In that case, I don't know how to answer your question, except: Give more information about your hardware! In general / when in doubt, supply us with more information so we don't have to guess what's going on. A quick Google search led me to a review of one mainboard with integrated Geforce 6100 that stated that 128 MB of primary RAM were used for video purposes. In all likelihood, the answer to your question lies in the manuals or other materials that came with the board. > Cheers, Steve.
