I owe a Nitro 5 2019 Ryzen 5. As we all know that out of 8gb of Ram that comes with it only 5.97gb is usable for the user. 2+ gb is reserved for the integrated VEGA 8 graphics. 
So My question is that is it safe to change the default values from Bios settings of the Ram allotted to the integrated graphics card so that I could get 8gb ram for usage?

    The user is speaking in Portuguese. What he says is that you need to press fn + tab three times and then press f10 to save. However, fn + tab may not work on nitro 5 models with amd processors. I also think that the information that is changed is also not saved by the bios. In addition, those resources that are made available can turn the notebook into a brick.
    Yes. I was afraid it could either void my warranty or brick my Lap so I thought of asking the community about it. Anyways thankyou I received what I was looking for, I will upgrade my Ram it's better that way and safe. 
    I have asked others but is it okay to upgrade the ram now? Will it void my warranty? We need to remove that sticker at the back for accessing one of the screws.

    The warranty won’t be voided. Install CPUz and go to the “SPD” section at section “Max Bandwidth” to get the exact specification of your OEM ram which should be e.g. PC4-21300 then match your OEM ram exactly with the same specs which should be the “8GB DDR4-2666-PC4-21300 SODIMM” type ram and then you will have 16GB ram in dual channel. To make sure, look at the “Memory” section of CPUz in “Channel#” which should say “Dual”, simple.

    The BIOS of this model does not allow you to see and change that option. Just to be precise!
    Please click "Yes" if I have answered your question.

    I have gone through some YT videos. We need to unlock the Advance bios options which could be done by pressing some specific keys. In the advance options menu it could be  done.

    Also, just for your information, I think your standard ram is the 1x 8GB DDR4-2400 PC4-19200 so just match that up and you will have 16GB ram in Dual mode. See this guide of how to do this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yb-t8A0J5EQ

    If your standard ram is the DDR4-2666-PC4-21300 SODIMM then that is what this Crucial above from Amazon is and you should install, to get 16GB ram and "Dual" channel. Good luck
