So I went out and bought a new ddr3 4gb ramstick and turned on my computer noticing a significant change in performence but Windows does not detect the change, only that it still has 3.4gb of ram still. Though other programs like AMD Overdrive detect the other ramstick and says that it is utilizing it. The Bios also has no option for changing the allocation of ram and what not.  Task manager also says that it's only reading one of the 4gb sticks as well as my bios. 

 

I'm using Windows 8 64 Bit.
