I'll contact ASUS support tomorrow. Just double checked online and the card is registered properly with its serial to my account. Hopefully they will be helpful.
I feel disappointed a lot. You can argue all you want the card is still fantabulous but it still not what they advertised. If it's a 4 GB card it should be able to use all 4 GB at full speed and not only 3.5 GB. It doesn't help that GPUZ also displays the wrong info. Feels really shady and more than an honest mistake.
I don't agree with Nvidia apparently hiding the segmented memory from the public.
That being said, they did something like this with the 660 and 660 Ti and the thing still worked fine. I guess we'll see when people study the benchmarks more carefully but in the end I only paid $298 for my Zotac 970 and for me the thing was only a stopgap between my old 680 and a card that can deliver consistent 60 fps performance in 4K resolution so I'm not going to lose sleep over this.
