I built this computer from scratch a few months ago, and noticed now apparantly (memory hadn't seemed to be an issue until the last few weeks) that my system shows i have 8 gigs installed, but only between 3.92 and 5.96 GB available. The number changes when i look at it, usually from boot to boot, occasionally while the computer is running still. I have included a system information export in a spoiler tag to show what i am talking about, (the number changed frequently while i was watching the tab, between 4.77 and 4.9 available)
I have heard a lot about disabling the integrated graphics, however i cannot find an option to do so (or an option referring to the APU) in my bios using the ASRock Fatality FM2A88X Killer.
The Ram is becoming an issue, preventing me from doing something as simple as playing a game and watching a show at the same time on my dual monitors, or even having a chrome page open and playing a game.
I assumed the rest of the information in sysinfo would be to much to scroll through, so i pruned it to just the first page. If more is needed please let me know!
