31.9 GB

Why does my ram amount report 31.9 GB ? It is suppose to be 32 GB.

I am using a dedicated graphics card.

Some is hardware reserved by the OS.

Thanks.

Why didn't this happen when I had 16 GB of ram though ?

It did... the OS always reserves RAM, the amount it reserves depends on quite a few things.

Here is some talk about it in an old thread.
