Upgrading the video card is a non-starter. The video chip is soldered to the motherboard and not something that can be removed and replaced.
Here is the Service Manual:
See p. 47
To have 8 gigs, the max you need 2 of these:
4 GB (PC3, 12800, 1600 MHz) 641369-001
More memory will help the video out a little bit. Not very much. You say you have 4 gigs which is not bad, so an upgrade to 8 will make everything work only a little better and gaming type video a tiny little bit better. Do not expect any significant increase in frame rates of games, for example.
