That looks pretty normal for a Ryzen laptop without a dedicated GPU. I doubt you can set the dedicated memory in the BIOS.

Yep, it is what it is. The only thing you can do is add memory to the PC, if that`s possible.
I searched in the BIOS but couldn't find any option to adjust the memory.
This "problem" is not explicit, neither in the technical specifications of the computers affected, nor in the AMD literature. I have a Lenovo ThinkPad T495s, and this limitation is not stated at all anywhere. Misleading.
Every AMD APU laptop actually does have this "problem".
As to why AMD doesn't address this to the OEMs yet is I don't why.
Okay, thank you. If I had known , I never would buy laptops with AMD CPU![]()

You have 5.95 GB of usable RAM, more than my 5.9 GB, which is more than enough on my extremely low-end PC.
Letīs not exaggerate this. In normal use for a "normal" user, a laptop with 8 GB and 2 GB dedicated to graphics should operate well. The graphics system is always using memory. In this case, that memory is not taken from the "main" memory, but from the dedicated memory.
If the user is a power user or has special requirements, they should not buy a 8 GB laptop, or should check before buying that the memory is expandable. A laptop is always a compromise.
That's not enough for me, I paid 8GB and got 5.95 GB, but okay, people, thank you for surely.
