AI Summary

Windows’ hardware‑accelerated GPU scheduling (HAGS) reserves a portion of video memory, which can be problematic for graphics cards with only 6 GB or 8 GB of VRAM. The feature appears as a toggle in Windows 11’s graphics settings and is enabled by default on most PCs, also serving as a prerequisite for DLSS Frame Generation. On older or budget GPUs—such as the author’s RTX 2060 with 6 GB of VRAM—the reserved slice can consume memory the card cannot afford, reducing the VRAM available for games.
