                  All that will tell you is the maximum physical address lines of the processor's memory controller. If you shift the value 1 left by this number it was give you the size.
 
                  
                There are a number of ways to find the actual physical memory, I would recommend the BIOS int 0x15 ax = 0xE820 function.  |

                I got a perfect memory map with int 15h E820! Also the main place to load aplications into memory after 100000h  |
