The built-in graphics function inside the 945GC Northbridge, uses
system memory for storage.

The internal graphics are called GMA950. As you can see here, the limit
is 224MB for the internal graphics. That is as much as can be set
aside for the internal graphics. The rest remains usable for system
memory.

If you wanted even more graphics memory, then buy a PCI
Express x16 video card. That will have graphics memory on
the card itself. For example, this card has 1GB of memory
on the graphics card itself.
