It will do it.. I do similar on a much weaker machine but... sloowly...

Does it indicate whether the 2 GB of video RAM is taken from your total RAM or is it on the card?
In any case 16 GB of RAM is not a huge amount...
7200 ROM ATA interface is also a bit old technology wise. Maybe there is an SSD upgrade?

How can I find out if the 2 GB of video RAM is taken from your total RAM or is it on the card?

Usually there is a term like "onboard" memory or something deeper in the stats...

It says 128 MB dedicated video memory.
