What is the amount of onboard memory for the Iris Pro grahics on a 15 mbp

[mrsavage1]

Can someone tell me what is the maximum available memory for the iris pro on a mac?

It's dynamic, up to 1GB.

It's dynamic, up to 1GB.

And doesn't it "borrow" from the system RAM, or am I terribly confused?

(Awesome avatar, by the way.)

Correct, the Intell GPU uses the system RAM as its VRAM.

(Why thank you.)

in windows 8.1 it gets dynamically allocated up to 1.7gb

I believe it also has 128MB of onboard eDRAM too.

Iris has 128MB of dedicated super fast RAM, and it can borrow up to 1GB of memory in the system RAM
