I'm having a problem after updating my Intel HD 520 to the latest version, before the update I was able to manage the amount of memory dedicated to the video card through the system registry, after the update I can't anymore, and besides the memory dedicated is fixed at 6gb (half the system memory). before the update I was able to play GTA V without any problem and it always used approximately 8gb+ of ram, after the update gta only uses 6gb because the other 6gb is saved to the video memory, this is causing me several crashes in the game

System Used: Samsumg All-In-One E3
CPU SKU: i3 6100u
GPU SKU: Intel HD 520
Processor Line: U-Series
System BIOS Version: N/A
CMOS settings: N/A
Graphics Driver Version: Latest
GOP/VBIOS Version: N/A
Operating System: Windows 10
OS Version: Latest
API: N/A
Occurs on non-Intel GPUs?: No

Steps to Reproduce:
-------------------------------
1. Update Intel HD Graphics to the latest version
2. Open GTA V

Expected Results:
GTA V using more than 6gb of ram (i have 12gb)
-------------------------------

Actual Results:
GTA V is using just 6gb of ram due to half system memory dedicated for Intel HD, causing a lot of stutters
-------------------------------

Additional Information:
we should be able to manage the amount of memory dedicated to the graphic card
-------------------------------
