[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1560396, member: 110816"] Welcome to Mac-Forums.. Within the settings of the VM you've created for Windows, click on the Processors & Memory tab and there you can control how much memory you give to the Windows VM. Realize that if you want to give 8GB to the VM, your iMac should have at least 16GB of memory, otherwise you're going to adversely affect the performance of OS X.. As far as graphics is concerned, click on Display and ensure "Accelerate 3D graphics" is set to on, you can't really control video memory here. Realize that the requirements you are looking at are for the physical machine, that doesn't translate one-to-one for a VM. So start with some reasonable level of settings and see how the program behaves, if it behaves well, then you're done, if not, you will have to increase (likely) the amount of RAM given to the VM to make the application happy..
