    Hi, I have an Aspire 3 A315-41 with the following specs:
    CPU: Ryzen 5 2500U
    GPU: Vega 8
    RAM: 8GB (2x4 expandable up to 2x16)
    HDD: 1TB
    SSD: 180GB M.2 (which I added myself)

    Once I expand the system RAM, I'm looking to increase the amount dedicated to the GPU (currently 1GB), which I know is possible on (some?) Raven Ridge chips. I assume that the BIOS might have such an option, but it's not available by default. Anything you think I can do?
