HP Recommended
Product: HP ENVY x360 Laptop - 15-ds1010wm
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

Hello.. i have an HP envy x360 15 with ryzen 5 4500u and vega 6 igpu and 8gb of ram.. my problem is the allocated video memory is locked at 512mb.. and i cant increase it via BIOS (which on every hp device is missing, alongside any other logical or useful option - because why the hell not)

and please dont tell me (it relies on system. system will work this out and allocate/assign spare/available system RAM to VRAM automatically when required).. because i checked  task manager while a vram intensive task is going on at the same time (Heaven Benchmark 4.0) which is a heavily gpu intensive benchmark and the vram usage never exceeded 492 mb. where i had 4gb of ram free at the same time .
and there is that game i play with my friends (paladins) and its not a demanding game it runs on potato pc.. the problem is the game runs at 100 fps / very high settings (1080p)..
my friend has the same CPU on his Dell Inspiron 7000 series, and his has 2GB reserved video memory and the game come in way sharper and SMOOTHER than mine.

the reason why I need more dedicated reserved video memory is not for performance, but so it can load textures properly into video memory & display them properly on screen in a non-blurry fashion. rather than being a blurry mess, like it is now.
COME ON HP..
