How much memory does the GPU have in a AMD A10-5800K Trinity 3.8GHz (4.2GHz Turbo) Socket FM2 100W Quad-Core?

I am planning on building a gaming computer and I want to go with the AMD A10-5800K Trinity 3.8GHz that you can overclock to 4.2 GHz. This CPU has a GPU built in with it and I was curious to know how much memory the GPU actually had. I can't find it anywhere and Im trying to build a cheap gaming computer that is fairly decent. I dont need the games to run at 1080p either. Thanks.

Update:

Can I allocate 1 GB of RAM to the GPU and then later on if its not sufficient, go back into the BIOS and give it more?

    The amount of system RAM the GPU utilizes for graphics is variable based on current demand. It will us as much as it needs. This is done without any input from the user.

    The GPU takes a chunk of the system RAM for itself. You can configure how much in BIOS up to around 2 GB usually. I have found in mine there was not a performance difference between 1 and 2 GB.

    Source(s): My HTPC has a A6-5400K with 8 GB of DDR3 2133. With 1 GB allocated the system has 7 GB left over for system tasks as the memory pools stay segregated.

    i could say you're able to await 6800k as 5800k is an extremely susceptible CPU. 6800k could have extra powerful CPU and iGPU and could final you slightly longer. If available you may choose for AMD FX- 4100 or 4170 CPU and get your self a discrete GPU like HD 7750 or maybe GTS 450 in case you ought to discover it, which would be extra powerful than AMD 5800k and such as AMD 6800k overall performance. And the pricing would be close to to AMD A10-5800k.
