I recently upgraded to an MSI Mpower Z77 with i5-3570k and 8gb Corsair Vengeance, and paired with my already MSI GTX 560 ti, however I've noticed my system is only showing 7.87gb usable memory

I thought this is only the case when you are using the on-board video

Do you have MVP installed? This could be why you are only seeing 7.87GB. If not, check with CPU-Z to verify that all the RAM is there. Window can get things wrong at times.

Yes, MVP was the reason, I disabled this in the BIOS, and the system memory is now at 8gb

Probably the reason why I was getting really low FPS on Borderlands 2 even with all the settings turned down, it must have been using the Intel HD 4000

thx fro the help
