Does the GPU have 8GB of memory?
This sounds like a problem we had back in the 32bit days. Video memory from the GPU is mapped into the normal memory space. Systems with 4GB could never use all of it because of that.
This still happens with 64bit systems, but the address space is so big the video memory doesn’t overlap with system memory addresses anymore.
I think there is a BIOS setting to force that mapping into back into the first part of addresses. Might want to find that setting and make sure it is off.
