Tho some manufacturers lock this ability for normal users, for “safety reasons”, basically they don’t want unknowing customers to alter their products setup, because it can damage the machine.
like explained here:

But Vram capacity for vega might be unlocked 🙂
here is an example video:

btw there shouldn’t be much of a difference, because if the vega grahpics(iGPU) runs out of Vram (integrated GPU vram is actually system RAM), it will tap into the system RAM anyways.
the only benefit you could see, would be games or other apps, checking your hardware setup to see if there is enough dedicated Vram available. So the app will not check for the not yet allocated system RAM, which the onboard Vega GPU can also use as Vram.
Hope this makes sense, if it doesn’t feel free to ask away.
notes:
GPU=Graphics processing Unit
on-board graphics=same as GPU
iGPU=integrated GPU ^ (means the same for you as the 2 above)
VRAM=Memory dedicated to the GPU
RAM=system memory
YOUR GPU=AMD RX Vega 8 (Ryzen iGPU)
YOUR CPU=AMD Ryzen 5 2500U
default iGPU(vega 8 grpahics) vram=128MB or 256MB
max iGPU vram=2048MB or 2GB for short
