Shares almost 500 mb of memory? Never seen that happen...i guess thats good right?

That sounds about right, I've always been a bit confused as to why it says shared memory, it's usually about twice the size of the dedicated memory though.

so, the more ram you have, the more shared graphics memory?

As I said i'm not entirely sure why it says theres shared memory when there isn't any (that I know of). I mean if it did share memory, that would severely cripple performance.
