Does this model have 1GB or 2GB of dedicated video RAM? I have seen differing numbers across different websites.

On the nvidia sticker on computer it says 1gb dedicated. I had the same issue coming across different numbers

Other than the advertized 16 gigs of ram, I really don't know. The hard drive is 1 terabyte. I repartitioned the hard drive, however. because Asus partitions it the opposite of other manufacturers.

I'm sorry. I don't have that kind of information. But there's a model with a 2GB graphics card.

The one you posted has a blu ray lector also has 16gb of ram. This one has a dvd-r lector and 12gb of ram

When look in my computer's info it sees it as the GTX 650 so I'd say its the 2GB video card not the 1GB(Well that's what my computer says Any way)

Melder you might want to prepare as there is now a review on cnet.com where the reviewer states his unit comes with 1GB welded on and no way to update it to 2gb. Please post your findings when you get your unit and I hope the RAM is upgradeable!

It does indeed have a dedicated graphics card HOWEVER by default it uses the Intel Graphics for most video operations. You can configure particular applications to take advantage of the Radeon Card when dedicated graphics are desired, however for most lighter needs the Intel handles the workload to save power. It took me a little bit to wrap my head around how this all works, but it does work and it works well.

So does have 4 gigs of ram or 2? Which is it? And if it does have 4, what's up with the 32 bit OS?

they say 4 gigs. i will tell you this. everything i run on my home built rig {M/B asus rampage 2 extreme, 16 gigs ram, intel quad core i7 3.2 ghz and 500 gig ssd hd} is smoking fast. best vid card i have ever used. make sure you buy from EVGA they have the absolute best customer service. i had a card from them that went bad after 2 years of use sent it back and they replaced it with a better one than the one i had sent them. you can't beat that.

I Only have 256GB with this model, but if you make video editing, you will need more storage... So, i recommend 256GB and the speed i think it's the same.

Memory can be expanded to 8GB. You can install a low profile video card in the unit. The unit will be ready to use out of the box. Thanks

It has the ability to allocate up to 1GB of RAM to video memory via integrated graphics, though for gaming duty a PCIe graphis card with dedicated processing and VRAM is recommended. It's good enough to get you running if you want to take your time building a machine.

Sorry been busy at work, just saw the email. Your answer is that it has two gigs of ram.

I believe the Intel integrated graphics dynamically uses system RAM. It reserves a small amount, like 64 MB, for dedicated. It will use more if needed.

It's an ideal machine. Since you're working with video, you might want to make sure the ram is maxed out if it's not already. 8 gigs is max.

I pretty sure the video card has its own ran. The system can take up to 16gb of ram and I recommend all of it with a solid state hard drive.
