The XE MAX dGPU has dedicated 4GB VRAM. But there are other problems (driver-related) that really pull it down at this time.
limafoxtrot commented on Acer Swift 3X 14" i7-1165G7 8GB DDR4 / 1TB SSD $1,098 Delivered @ Amazon AU
Don't bet on the XE MAX being a good dGPU option (compared to AMD SOCs or just the plain XE iGPU) - drivers are NOT mature, and it doesn't…

@Francis82 - perhaps ACER Swift 3 11th gen (not the 3x - i.e. drop the XE MAX graphics). In the $1000 price bracket, it's pretty hard to go…
