All gpus have shared because windows but you don't want to use it because ram is a lot slower than dedicated vram. It's only going to show the 2gb or you will get stuttering issues dipping into shared.

you really should not care about the shared video memory. its significantly slower than the dedicated if this is a dedicated GPU. if it is an iGPU, you can expand the dedicated memory in the BIOS.
