it only says i have 7.5gb, but i have 16gb. is there anyways to fix this so I have 16 gb.
I do have an Asrock z97x killer motherboard, and the ram is 8gb x 2 CORSAIR vengeance pro 16gb 1866mhz.
Maybe i should go in bios?

Ok i seemed to fix it, it automatically down clocked its self to 1333mhz when its suppose to be at 1866mhz so i clocked it to the right speed. And it now detetcts 16gb
