Don Luca Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Hi, I'm going to buy this motherboard but there's a thing which is not clear... I downloaded the manual and it says (if I interpreted correctly) that we can allocate 1 Mb or 8 Mb of memory to Video Memory... ...8 Mb of VRAM isn't enough to run smoothly OSX and games as well.... Is it like the GMA900 of many notebooks, which allocates dynamically memory (and does it work under OSX?) or is it just stuck at 8 Mb? I post here the link to the motherboard specs... http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mai...ail.php?UID=703 Here's the manual: http://66.96.84.4/support/mnu_exe/mbd_mnu/E7210v1.0.zip Everything else should work out of the box, the only thing that i fear is a broken 950... Thanks in advance. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/17981-about-the-msi-945gm2-series/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
