Peripherals > gfx configuration > set integrated graphics to 'force'

This will unlock an option called 'UMA frame buffer size' which you can set to up to 2gb

Please note the following:
- 2gb is the maximum.
- You won't see any difference between 1gb and 2gb because the APU is too weak to use the extra vram
- You are much better off buying a dedicated graphics card
- When you do add a dedicated graphics card you will need to change integrated graphics from 'force' back to 'auto' or it will not work

Use 3dmark or passmark or unigine or any other benchmarking tool, or just play a game and see
