INTRODUCTION:

Any sort of random access memory (RAM) specifically used to store picture data for a computer display is referred to as VRAM (video RAM).
The goal of VRAM is to guarantee the consistent and fluid operation of graphics display.
Applications that display intricate image textures or produce three-dimensional (3D) constructions made of polygons place the greatest emphasis on it.
VRAM is frequently used for programs like video games or 3D graphic design software.
Every form of VRAM is a unique configuration of dynamic RAM (DRAM).
VRAM, also known as the frame buffer, is a buffer that sits between the computer's processor and the screen.
