7950 help!?

[cha0s17]

Hey just bought a new system and had problems with the 7950 gainward bliss, its rated at 1gb memory but it only seems to come up as 512mb and probably only runs on 1 core.. anyone know how to get it to use both cores and full memory?

- cheers

You will not see 1GB of RAM... as in all SLI setups (which this effectively is) the cards have 512mb on each board and only use one lot of the ram.

yeh as cashman says 1gb is split between the 2 cores
