Laptop VRAM Guide (Laptop GPU Guide)

For business users choosing a portable laptop PC, the most important factor is the GPU’s VRAM capacity. Realistic guidelines including the RTX 50 series are as follows:

VRAM CapacityRepresentative GPU Models (Laptop)Performance Guide
iGPU
(Memory shared)
Intel Iris Xe
Intel Arc Graphics
△ Limited
Light “preset rooms” can work, but quality settings must be “Low/Medium.” Not suitable for high-quality presentations.
4GBGTX 1650 / 1650 Ti
RTX 3050 (some models)
△ Barely sufficient
Standard rooms can work, but placing many furniture items causes crashes. Quality is limited to “Medium/High.”
6GBRTX 3060 / 4050 / 5050
RTX 3050 / Ti
〇 Standard (Minimum)
The minimum line for business demos. Many rooms can be viewed at “High” settings, but “Epic” may be difficult.
8GBRTX 4060 / 5060
RTX 3070
◎ Comfortable (Target)
Current standard. Good balance of cost and performance, recommended for most users.

☆ Plenty
Safe with future-proofing. Photorealistic rendering and video production are also practical.
🚨

【Important】Desktop and Laptop versions are different!

Even with the same name “RTX 4060,” desktop and laptop PC (Laptop version) performance is completely different.

  • Desktop version: Can use unlimited power, strong cooling, so high performance.
  • Laptop version: Performance is limited due to battery and heat constraints (VRAM capacity may also be lower).

Even a laptop with “RTX 4090” doesn’t have the same performance as a desktop RTX 4090. Always check the specs (especially VRAM capacity) as a “Laptop GPU”.

Should I Replace My PC? (Upgrade Guide)

Advice for those worried about “whether my current PC will work” or “whether to replace it.”

1. About the Latest RTX 50 Series (New Generation)

Laptop-oriented GeForce RTX 50 series from 2025 onward have enhanced VRAM bandwidth (speed).

GPU Model (Laptop)VRAM (Expected)Recommendation Reason
RTX 5080 / 509016GB - 24GBThe strongest choice. Desktop-level performance, plenty for video production.
RTX 507012GBBest balance. Breaks through the previous generation “70 series = 8GB” barrier, greatly extending lifespan with 12GB.
RTX 50608GBStandard choice. VRAM capacity is the same 8GB as 4060, but improved memory speed makes loading and operation smoother.

Conclusion: If budget allows, RTX 5070 Laptop with increased VRAM to 12GB is the “correct answer” that will last the longest. To save costs, RTX 5060 / 4060 (8GB) is also comfortable enough.

2. I Want to Run on My Current PC (Intel Iris Xe / GTX 1650)

Before buying a new PC, try the following in your current environment:

  1. Choose lightweight rooms: Use lightweight preset rooms like “Japanese Apartment” or “Simple Studio.”
  2. Lower quality: Set quality settings to “Medium” or “Low.”
  3. Use DX11 mode: Refer to Troubleshooting and switch to DirectX 11 mode (for iGPU).

If this achieves the goal of “client demos,” there’s no need to force a replacement.

Integrated Graphics (iGPU) Limitations

Operation is possible with iGPUs like Intel Iris Xe, but the following feature limitations exist:

⚠️

iGPU environment limitations:

  • Nanite: Restricted (not recommended due to high load).
  • MegaLights: Cannot be used (hardware performance insufficient).
  • Stability: May be unstable in DirectX 12 mode. Consider switching to DX11 mode in settings.

Software Requirements

  • OS: Windows 10 (64-bit, 20H2 or later) / Windows 11
  • Driver: Be sure to install the latest version from the GPU manufacturer’s (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) official website. Drivers via Windows Update may be old.
