You can give a look at the AdapterRAM attribute of Win32_VideoController.

The Win32_VideoController WMI class represents the capabilities and management capacity of the video controller. AdapterRAM is one of its attibute:


AdapterRAM
Data type: uint32
Access type: Read-only
Qualifiers: Units(Bytes)
Memory size of the video adapter.

Example: 64000

The full syntax is listed here:
