Hi, I just bought a new computer set up and installed everything fine (at least I thought). When I went to look at my memory in the system's information, it tells me that I have 8 gb of installed ram, which is what i bought, but only 2.96 gb of it is usable.
I have been reading online and I have tried doing the maximum memory under the msconfig and when I go to the BIOs screen for my motherboard, I cannot find a RAM remapping to enable. I looked around online and I read that it was already enabled as default.
This is the motherboard I bought

and the ram I am using is
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226095
I bought them both in a package deal. I am also using my own graphics card.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
