@Matt_Hartley this starts to become an interesting thread in my opinion. We at least need a new option in the bios that is somewhere in the middle of 0.5GB and 16 GB
To add some more hints while thinking about things.
-
With the iGPU’s VRAM locked to just 0.5 GB via that BIOS reservation, I’m getting wild glitches - imagine random, colorful 30×30-pixel blocks all over the screen (no screenshot, sorry) and some random flickering.
-
i maybe got more screen real estate hooked up than usual, so that tiny reserved VRAM gets crushed trying to drive everything
