The assignment of DRAM as VRAM happens automatically. If needs dictate, up to 50% of your DRAM can be assigned as VRAM. You do not need to do anything. The best thing to do to improve performance is get more memory. In this day and age, with the ridiculous amounts that the games are requiring (for shaders, etc.), 8GB is simply not enough.
