Video Memory...

Righto, I have 512mb of Memory that is shared with Video memory which gives me 64MB Video and 448MB Ram...
I have a 64MB Graphics card in my room and was wondering if I were to put the Card in the computer, Would it Add upon the already 64MB.
Like 64MB(internal) + 64MB (card) = 128mb.

Is this true?

No. You either Use the Internal or External memory. You put that video card in it will use the on board memory of the card and disregard the main board memory. So the answer is no. It will just use 64 Mb of memory which ever way you go. But adding the video card will free up your main board memory though.

I'll stick it in anyways.

Doing that it should give me 512MB of RAM back?
