    8GB of ram only 7.5 usable...why not the full 8GB

    thanks guys. i have an asus m2n-sli deluxe. no integraged graphics. but the max mem for this board is 8GB. does that mean that 8gb is the max the mem controller can handle even with my vid card included? i thought 64bit got rid of that issue...just confused now.

    i just added another 4 gb of ram to my system and in the bios it say 8192 installed, 7679 usable and windows says 8gb installed, 7.5 usable. i know it's not much but i'm running a 64bit system, why isn't the full 8gb showing as usable??? Thanks for your time and for any and all input. Kerry
