The amount of Graphics Memory is dynamically allocated by the Graphics Driver and Windows to balance the needs of the operating system and all running applications. So, there are case that part of this 4GB RAM assigned for graphics will be used by O.S. and application.

Please read the Frequently Asked Questions for Intel® Graphics Memory on Windows® 10 to get the more complete explanation.
