Does using CPU memory to boost an integrated GPU damage the PC in any way?I got GTA4 on my Intel hd 4400 laptop and used some "command.txt" notepad trick to increase the available memory for graphicsThe processor is i7-4600U. Can doing this damage the PC?

>>107702391Over really long gaming sessions it could create mustard gas.
>>107702391No it doesn't damage the computer. This was necessary on earlier patches of the game because it couldn't recognize over 2GB and it caused the graphics settings to be locked to lowest.

>>107702391No. This is intended functionality of the CPU and iGPU. Many systems have a BIOS option that does something similar. It's completely safe.Obviously your laptop is an antique and you should consider an upgrade, but I assume you're well aware of that. Well done for making the best of what you have.
>>107702391No, but it might cause increased usage of the paging file and slowdowns if you run out of memory.
>>107702846>>107702958The older patches of the game do not recognize over 2GB VRAM pools. I already explained this.
>>107702391You should be fine as long as your computer isn't a secret Decepticon.
>>107702391Yes, don't do it. It will damage you so called "PC"
>>107702391>The processor is i7-4600Uput your tongue on it to check it
