Would upgrading Ram help performance if upgrading VRAM is impossible?

Hi. Basically, I know my performance is being throttled by VRAM (I only have 6gb...yes, I know). Unfortunately I am playing on a laptop, so I can't upgrade the VRAM. :(

I have 16GB of RAM, and that is also usually hovering around the 15GB of usage mark. I can upgrade RAM to 32GB if I want.

Apparently, lack of VRAM can lead to more RAM being used. Would upgrading RAM be likely to increase performance/reduce crashes when VRAM is at its limit? Or is it time for a new laptop?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using some mods. But nothing texture heavy.
