980Ti only reporting 4 gigs vram

My 980ti, which has 6 gigs of vram, is only actually detected as 4gigs by ENB for skyrim. Or at least it's reported as 4 gigs available graphics memory when ENB shows stats on game launch. Figured I'd inquire here since with all the beautification mods I run, making the most of the cards 6 gigs vram could be useful. I wasn't sure if this was an actual bug in reporting though but it still can use all 6, or if the program simply has a limitation to only 4 since it wasn't long ago video cards with >4 was crazy talk.

Are you on windows 10? Its an issue with Windows 10 and Nvidia only reporting 4 GB for Dx9 I believe. Do a search here and you will find a lot of comments on it - its come up a few times.
