I'm not sure if this is a problem but on the control panel, I viewed the gtx 1080's properties and it shows that it has approximately 4gb worth of dedicated vram and the other half is shared system memory.

is this gpu configured incorrectly or am I just overreacting?

another question how do I make my system use the system ram instead of using my gpu's vram?
