How much GPU RAM do I need for gaming?

In my opinion, at the time of writing this guide, it's probably a good idea to choose a GPU with at least 4GB of VRAM as long as your budget permits it. The budget-friendly graphics cards with 2GB of VRAM that are currently available are still viable for entry-level 1080P gaming.

Is it OK to increase VRAM?

Nothing. You can only allocate RAM to integrated graphics so this won't do anything for your dedicated GT740. So essentially I can increase the vram with no harm.

Why does game fps drop?

In some situations your CPU may slow down while you are playing a game. This can be caused by overheating, or it can be caused by attempts to conserve battery power.

Will a graphics card improve FPS?

A new graphics card will increase your gaming performance more than any other component. That said, you can make modest upgrades to your PC to give you slightly better frame rates. The two areas you can upgrade are your CPU and RAM.
