Hi all,
 
So I have 16GB (2x8GB kit) of Mushkin Redline DDR4 memory but my system properties say 15.9GB usable?
 
Anybody know how can I get it to show 16GB? I heard there's a memory remapping feature or something which causes that.
Thanks in advance.

    Every computer I have ever built shows this, so I don't think it is an issue. Randolla is correct, there is nothing wrong.

    Coz my old pc shows me complete 12GB, and i've seen some X99 pc's that shows full 32GB, so I was wondering if something is taking up the memory in Windows. In my new X99 it shows 16GB in the Bios correctly though.
     
    As long as there is nothing wrong then fine :)
