Hello. I own a Lenovo B51-30 80LK laptop with Intel n3060 dual core processor and Intel HD 400 graphics. I want to increase the dedicated video ram on my iGPU(currently 128 mb),but can't succeed. I have Insyde H2O ver. 2.05 bios and can't find any related option there. On my PC with i3 i can change the dedicated vram, but here I can't. Are there any solutions, mates? Regards.

I have 4GB ram. I would like even 256 mb, at most 512. Anything more than 128 is welcome, it is just so low. I will upgrade with a 4gb stick someday.

Still, I want to do it. Extra frames for my old games are worth. Any solutions out there?

On my i3 4160 iGPU i could allocate even 1024 dedicated vram from.bios, on laptop can't I?
 
No you can't, not with a cut-down BIOS which doesn't have any options for shared memory allocation.

You really should have bought a laptop with a discrete GPU since they have their own dedicated VRAM.
Such laptops essentially have two GPUs, an Intel one for non-demanding tasks, plus an AMD or Nvidia high-performance one for games or image processing work.

For 125 dollars in Romania, new laptop, it's a bang. If i could've afforded, i would've bought one with dedicated GPU.
