Will it go better.

So if i have more than enough ram i can integrate some into my video cards if if wanted? If so how?

It only works if the video cards supports Turbocache (nvidia) or Hypermemory (ATI). These are standard in integrated Nvidia/ATI cards, but rare in dedicated cards. So if you, say, have a Geforce 7600 GT in a desktop, you won't be able to allocate additional memory to it because it has no Turbocache.

wow didn't know that integrated cards worked like that.
I have a similar problem on my laptop.
the videocard is an ati xpress 1100 series card. it has 256mb of dedicated video memory and steals 256mb of ram giving me a total of 512 video power. My problem is that the preformance is a tad slow on 3d apps. (halo has a fluctuating framerate, but my ping is fine) i get a vista base score of 2.8-3.0 (depending on the power setting).
my overall system has:
AMD turion X2 1.8ghz cpu
2gb DDR2 SDRAM
160gb SATA HDD
X8 dual-layer DVD drive
and the ati xpress i mentioned earlier (and no capacity for a full dedicated mobile card)

how do I optimize my performance for my card (i think it has hypermemory) so that my apps run faster? I think I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure integrated cards don't get eyecandies.

You go into the BIOS and set the video memory such that nothing is stolen from the main system RAM. And the Xpress 1100 is just a refreshed Xpress 200 - so it can't take advantage of more than 128 MB. If it really does have its own video memory (though I have yet to see such cards having over 128 MB dedicated) then allocate no RAM to it at all.
