4 gigs of ram but windows only reading 3.3 gigs

according to PCpitstop this is the description it gives;

Quote:
Speed rating is measured in megabytes per second. The percentage indicates the performance of this system compared to systems in our database with a similar CPU and clock speed; the number of similar systems is also shown. For example, a score of 50% would indicate this system had half the performance of comparable systems; 200% would indicate twice the performance. A "normal" number is 100% plus or minus about 15%.

The System Management BIOS is reporting that there is 4096 MB of RAM, but Windows reports that 3326 MB is available. The most common reason for this discrepancy is that your system uses some system RAM for the video graphics card or BIOS functions. This case is common in highly-integrated PCs with video graphics built into the system board, and does not require any changes on your part.
I never seen a setting in Bios to fix this where 700+ MB of Ram wont be used for onboard graphics when I use PCIE Video card, how do I go about fixing this?
