I presume that because this is an APU that VRAM is stored on the chip, you can't upgrade it.

Apus don't have vram on the chip. It has 0 vram and uses ram as vram like pretty much all igpus. There's no point in setting the value manually, it uses what it needs. It's too weak to even use all of its available shared vram. Any performance issues is simply because it's weak and there is nothing you can do about it.

well i have learned that the more ram i install on the laptop the more memory i have for graphics

Yes but more vram doesn't mean more performance if it doesn't get used in the first place. You can always take a look at usage with gpuz for vram and task manager for ram. If you have extra, then you know it's not the issue.
