W10 Taskmanager shows different GPU (r7 m265) RAM

  • Aspire E15 / E5-551G-TOKC
  • AMD QuadCore A10-7300
  • AMD Radeon R6 (1024MB)
  • AMD Radeon R7 M265 (2048MB)

Hey, 

Windows10 Taskmanager and AMD Adrenalin control center are showing different RAM size of the R7 M265 (1024 to 2048). Is this normal or is there an error?

Cheers,

Mathias

No, it's showing the same thing, dedicated GPU memory is 1GB. Shared GPU memory takes into account paging space on the HDD.

But the R7 m265 should have 2GB dedicated GPU Memory (VRAM, like it appears in the amd settings), not 1GB. That has nothing to do with shared RAM from the system, or?

Likely a detection error since it's a linked GPU, nothing to worry about.

You could also ask on the laptop maker forum/support.
