GTX770 4GB not showing the correct amount of ram

[cburke82]

So I have 2 Gigabyte GTX770 4GB cards in SLI and in a few games Shogun 2 to name one it will say I have 3GB or so of ram. what is the deal with that?

The game was probably made to access or read a maximum memory texture buffer in vram of 3gb.
Your card was probably not out when the game was made. The game cannot address 4gb of texture memory.

It will still be there just the game is reporting it wrong.
