Hello all, Recently I noticed a problem to do with my GTX 970 G1 Gaming from Gigabyte. The card seems to only use 169mb of VRAM in all circumstances (benchmarking, gaming etc). As well, over the past few months (since early January; I purchased and built my PC in early December 2014) I have...

Also, the display driver crashed while running that same test. It recovered shortly after the crash though.

Ran Furmark, avg temp was approximately 65-70 degrees Celsius.

I've checked the PSU connectors, both are connected, as well, the card is in the top most slot.
