NVIDIA GTX 970 is known for BEST product of NVIDIA these days, and performance level incredible higher and perfectly suited to price/performance ratio. GTX 970 market at $325-$355 in international market. but a Power user while testing the Graphics card's vRAM usage find out that 970's VRAM usage is while gaming is lacking right after 3.5GB. the other 500mb is throttling and almost not in use. you can see the benchmark here
There are some advance user/Enthusiasts' reports on limitation in allocating the 4G and shows 3.3g or 3.5G is using up out of 4G. So ultimately 500-700mb vRAM is not using in games that are vRAM and memory bandwidth intensive like shadow of mordor, Battlefield 4 and Call of duty Advanced Warfare. that also are benched in testing process.
NVIDIA admitts the FLAW or vRAM usage/allocation limitation is there. Nvidia's Response on Geforce.com this issue mainly reported first on Lazygamer.net
