Graphics card manufacturers often put huge amounts of RAM on their terrible cards for people who think "more ram ===== better!"

It's more of a problem with desktop systems than with laptops but the point remains - look at what the cards are first, not the RAM.
Yeah. I guess it depends a lot of the card can actually make reasonable use of it's RAM. A GeForce 7600 Go won't need (more than!) 256mb, a 79xx probably could do.
