Chipset MS-9871 ▶ DVMT Mode Select Intel's Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) allows the system to dynamically allocate memory resources according to the demands of the system at any point in time. The key idea in DVMT is to improve the efficiency of the memory allocated to either system or graphics processor. It is recommended that you set this BIOS feature to DVMT Mode for maximum performance. Setting it to DVMT Mode ensures that system memory is dynamically allocated for optimal balance between graphics and system performance. ▶ DVMT/FIXED Memory When set to DVMT/FIXED Mode, the graphics driver will allocate a fixed amount of memory as dedicated graphics memory, as well as allow more system memory to be dynamically allocated between the graphics processor and the operating system. 3-15

DVMT Mode Select
Intel’s Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) allows the system to dy-
namically allocate memory resources according to the demands of the sys-
tem at any point in time. The key idea in DVMT is to improve the efficiency
of the memory allocated to either system or graphics processor.
It is recommended that you set this BIOS feature to DVMT Mode for maxi-
mum performance. Setting it to DVMT Mode ensures that system memory
is dynamically allocated for optimal balance between graphics and system
performance.
DVMT/FIXED Memory
When set to DVMT/FIXED Mode, the graphics driver will allocate a
fixed amount of memory as dedicated graphics memory, as well as
allow more system memory to be dynamically allocated between the
graphics processor and the operating system.
