Regular RAM to VRAM?

Hi,  my GPU is gtx 760 (2GB edition) and I have a lot of fps drops on gta v. It's taking all of the Video RAM on the card, and gets my pc to 80-90% RAM usage. I cant afford a new GPU but I wonder if I buy more 8GB ram, will it help? Or is it possible to dedicate regular RAM to Video RAM?

(I'm new and I also don't know much about computer hardware so dont lynch me please :D)

You cannot convert ram to vram with a dedicated gpu, igpus use ram as their vram, so increasing it will increase the total memory it has abailable to use as vram, but igpus usually never even get past 1gb of usage because the gpus aren't powerful enough to use that much vram.
