I just bought GTA V for PC, but I want a better play experience. I am using a laptop: HP Pavilion (Windows 8). Installed RAM is 8gb, but in the game it is limited to only 1gb of video memory (Which is terribly hard to use in that game).

If I am totally wrong and it is my graphics card that I need to upgrade, please tell me. I have a: AMD Radeon (TM) R7 M260. I've been searching around the Internet, but never managed to fix this. I can't understand if I have Installed 8gb and can only use 1gb. Please help.

  • You can't. Your VRAM is limited by your hardware.

You cannot upgrade the GPU on your laptop as it's soldered to the board. It is set to use 1 GB of to the system RAM. If you check the BIOS, you may be able to increase the amount of RAM that is allocated to the GPU.
