I have a AMD A8-7650K Processor 3.3GHz and 16gb of ram. I want to dedicate 8 gb to the apu but don't know how. I cant find any videos. If someone could find a good simple video that would be amazing! THANK YOU!!

The APU RAM usage is adaptive. When the graphics of the APU need RAM they use it. When that RAM is not in use - it is just System RAM. Just leave it alone, drivers and OS can handle RAM distribution well enough.

you can't allocate 8gb to an apu 2gb is the max amount of ram you can allocate to your apu which you can set in the bios settings. if you have 16gb then allocate 2gb to your apu then that 2 gb will be used by the apu and the other 14gb will be used by your system.

tips on making your apu perform better - get dual channel ram kit and with atleast 1866 mem frequency.
