Hi

As you are aware an APU takes some RAM for the graphics.

I have recently got a graphics card which works perfectly but the APU still takes RAM for the APU... Anyway I can stop this? I am using the APU as a processor only
 
Solution
You can disable the APU graphics by selecting the graphics card as the main video adapter, in the BIOS.

Also, plug the monitor to the graphics card itself.
