Hi. Im wondering, why my Radeon 9600 Pro in Everest shows 256mb, but in dxdiag 511mb of memory?

System Specs

If it's AGP (I'm sure it is..I had an ATI 9600 Pro and I'm almost certain it was AGP 8X) and using a 256MB Buffer that feeds off of your system ram, it could show as 512MB total allowable memory usable by your 9600.

Yes, it's AGP.
