Hello!

Recently I bought a GTX 470 Fermi. Now, the box says it has 1280mb of memory. However, every game and program I run says it has 2.6gigs of memory.

How is this possible?
 
Solution
Probably just the "total available graphics memory" which includes some of your system ram that you are seeing. Thats just how much windows chooses to allot to graphics, you don't have extra dedicated video ram.
