Install the card and I think
$ lspci -v
will tell you. Eg:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
	Subsystem: Lenovo Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics Controller
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 48
	Memory at b2000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4M]
	Memory at a0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
	I/O ports at 5000 [size=64]
	[virtual] Expansion ROM at 000c0000 [disabled] [size=128K]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: i915
	Kernel modules: i915


Cheers,
David.

This only shows the PCI memory address ranges. The actual memory size 
may differ. Sometimes it is written in the kernel logs or Xorg logs.

It appears DuckDuckGo (a much more freedom-respecting search engine) is
also blocked in China.

Thank Larry! 

i've just tested bing with "video memory linux" and find answer
BTW Chinese search market is dominated by baidu, and baidu's reputation is bad.
