So I have been researching for days on how to do this and I know I have to do it through the Bios, I am using the Latest MSI Click Bios 4 on a MSI A78M-E35 Motherboard and Cannot Find The Option Anywhere. http://
I have around (as shown by screenshot here: http://) 4000mb of available graphics memory and I am only using 700mb or so. I really need to Increase what is dedicated to around 1200mb so I can run PC Games at full 1080p. All Help Is Appreciated.

1. faster ram... APU's LIVE for more RAM, its just how it works.


2) You could compare your current graphics card to a lets say.. HD 7750, and it will add about 25 - 35% More strength to the card. Put it in crossfire mode and BAM! A high FPS boost in Optimized Games.. UNLIKE GTA IV. Etc. I hope I helped! :D
 

Increasing dedicated memory on an APU reduces the amount of RAM available to the rest of the system. For this reason I always reccommend that you use at least 8gb of fast, dual channel ram with an APU.

In BIOS the option to adjust shared video memory is sometimes called the frame buffer size
