Of course there's overkill if a machine meant to play games has too much OS ram. In this case its not huge if the 2.5 gb is true but it CAN.

Only way that happens is if there is too little VRAM (and by too little, I mean a significant amount less: 2/8 or 4/16). So, that's as moot a point as it gets, since game consoles aren't built that way.

Edit: And it's not 2.5gb (gigabits), but 2.5GB (gigabytes). This is to help with confusion for anyone trying to learn.

I'm pretty sure it is 2.5 GiB (gibibytes, so 2.5 x 1024³ or 2.5 x 2³⁰) instead of 2.5 GB (gigabytes, so 2.5 x 1000³⁾

^{Storage is usually marketed in base-10-numbers, but RAM size is still in base-2-numbers as far as I know.}
