why is this ? I've noticed on several programs and windows functions my video memory is listed at "2.9gb" when it's only 896MB. Kinda confusing. The only way I could see this happening if RAM was being added onto the video memory..but I haven't done anything like that...

anyone else see anything like this?
 
Sorry no mention of the OS so many times it is 32 Bit which is why i stated what i did. ;)
 
i haven't tried GPU-z...and yes, it is 64bit :]

EDIT: just checked GPU-z and it showed the correct amount. Dunno why the other things show it at 2.9gb..weird. and it's a random number too. 896mb of video ram...like 6gb of RAM so where does 2.9 come from?
