GTX 680 4GB shows wrong GPU Memory

[davevegas]

Dear Community,

I have a GTX 680 from Zotac with 4GB memory and here are the specs:

http://www.zotac.com/products/graph...er/DESC/amount/10/section/specifications.html

As you can see the core clock is 1006 MHz which shows in my HWMonitor as 1Ghz so it's correct.

However, when I look at the GPU 1 Memory, it says 1.47 Ghz even though in the specs it says that the Memory Clock is 6008 MHz and the memory size 4GB.

Is that a cosmetic problem or is my GPU really running 4 times slower?

Any help appreciated!
Dave

I think it says "effective speed" is 6GHz - they add it up somehow

Can you tell me if all 4GB is recognised?
