    Hi, i'm new to this site and i have a problem.

    Anyway i bought the Gigabyte 6970 OC version yesterday and installed it today. Basically i got the card to play brink :)

    i went onto the website http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/ which is basically Can You Run it? which im sure your all aware of.

    Anyway i was shocked at what i find

    it says that for video ram im only using 755MB and i dont know why

    my computer specs are;

    CoolerMaster CM 690

    CoolerMaster Hyper Z600

    Intel Core i7 920

    Corsair TR3X6G1600C9 (3x2GB) DDR3

    Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P Motherboard

    Corsair TX-650 650W Power Supply

    Any suggestions about what the problem might be?

    Regards Pedro

    I think maybe; that site has its graphics card specs wrong, try contacting support on that site.

    If the system is working, then no need to worry about anything.

    Thanks for the reply sniper. I will contact support on that site. I upgraded my drivers and everything and ran the test again. I was shocked that instead of increasing video ram it showed that I had brought it down. So now it says "video ram- 751.7mb" hahaha
