Can anyone explain this to me? Just got a second 7800GTX to use for SLI in my a8n-sli premium board and these babies really eat up the system memory. I have 3 gigs of memory in the board but each 7800GTX is limiting my total system memory by 300 Megs. Thus, with both of these cards in my rig I have 2.4 gigs of available memory. My Bios makes me aware of total and available memory to the OS but I did not notice until I looked at the system properties in XP. This seems a little excessive; do these cards really use that much system memory or am I missing some BIOS configuration (i.e. aperture size etc) that is allowing this to happen? Is anyone else with a 7800GTX setup seeing the same thing? Should I even be concerned?
Thanks,
