Hey guys, I have a 9800 GT video card

when i purchase the pre-built computer it says my Vram is like 1gb but when I do dxdiag, it says i got approx 2.8gb vram...

Is this normal or it displays wrong information?

It adds the "virtual" ram to the total if I'm not mistaken.

You really still only have 1gb of useable ram.

Known bug in DxDiag.

Don't worry.
