Trotter Grandfather of Techist, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Staff member Messages 33,560 Location The South Aug 30, 2006 #4 In graphics cards, you're talking about turbo cache (or whatever ATI's version is called). The card has 128, but can and will use up to another 128 of system memory to make 256. It's a step up from onboard, but not a big one.
