The reason I didn't immediately open the PC up to see how much RAM was physically present was because the PC (which is at a mate's house) was not easily accessible, being behind a desk and tons of of other stuff. Looking inside the case is definitely a good idea at this point, I concur. I also should have looked at the full attached report before posting. The other DIMM in Speccy looks like it has plausible info. That said, the manufacturing date in Speccy matches for one of the DIMMs matches the one in seen in BIOS, but the serial number is odd in BIOS. I somehow missed the fact that BIOS shows only one DIMM detected.

Let OP pop the hood and check the hardware. How do you explain the posted photos of the bios also indicate only one DIMM present? even if it is allocated to the gpu it should show the second dimm in the bios.Īnd wrt the 8G allocated to the CPU GPU, shouldn't speccy show a second GPU, which it doesn't. I think it's worth checking that before popping the hood, IMHO. If 8GB is statically allocated to the onboard GPU, I am pretty sure that one would see similar results to those shared. Whatever speccy reports for your ram is wrong.Ĭheck it physically, open your computer case, or if it has a glass window look through it and see how man dimm modules are inserted on the mainboard. Your BIOS only reports 8GB, which is also what windows sees.

I also enclose the full Speccy report, in speccy, xml, and txt formats. The next post contains some of the screenshots. I've enclosed (Bad, sorry, my phone is old) screenshots of the BIOS and the Windows 10 About screen. Only Speccy seems to see 16 GB of RAM in the PC - both Windows and the PC's BIOS say that there is only 8 GB.
