Which game or application doesn't detect your shared memory properly?

fallout 4, games specs says it needs a 2gb video card, mine as far as i know is 8gb, after speaking with the game developers , they said that my dedicated memory is only 128mb ( which i honestly find that not honest as it should be mentioned on the game specs ) any way, i am trying to overcome this issue , by making my dedicated memory up to 4gb so i can play the game with no complication, i hope you can help me with this if there is a way around it, if not, let me know so i can move on..thanks

In most cases, the computer manufacturer has already configured the system to use the maximum amount of graphics memory that is possible for your particular computer model.

the "How much graphics memory does my computer have?" section is the same for windows 10 after setting the registry value the dedicated memory may have increased to 512MB. this upper limit is set by the driver

When detecting the amount of available video memory for your graphics device, remember that different rules may apply to different devices. For example: An integrated graphics part reports a small amount of dedicated video memory. Because the graphics hardware uses a portion of system memory, the reported system memory is a better indication of what your game may use. This should be taken into account when using the reported memory as guidance for enabling or disabling certain features. The GPU Detect Sample shows how to obtain this information in Windows*.

The dev should learn this.
