    no, the video card memory is seperate from system memory. Nice try though

      No of course not, the memory in your RAM and the memory in your graphics card are 2 totally different things

        nope, but it still helps to have more video memory, except your card has a 128bit interface, so it is a waste to have anything more than 256mb. lol.

              yes, but only if you pry the memory off, and solder it to the appropriate connections (you'll have to fabricate those, too) on the other side of a single-sided 512mb stick.

              Let's do it! But I insist you buy the ram, and I insist that you supply the beer that will be needed in order to pull off such a delicate task.

                  Send your computer to me and I can configure it for you. But dont tell me where to send it back to, itll spoil the surprise.

                      I concure 100%. You don't even deserve a calculator. You should be forced to use an abacus.

                        Um, let's try to be a bit nicer. I can see this being a legitimate question if one were new to computers.

                              I figured as much. Maybe next time you want to post a theory like this one, do some research on google first, otherwise people like me will jump all over you.
