A boot-up dmesg can be helpful as kernel outputs detailed memory usages
such as below:

Often memory can be reserved for other purposes and therefore is not
available for OS. A most common example is to be used by integrated VGA.
The size can range from 16MB to 512+MB, depending on hardware design.
It can also be BIOS bug if it fails to assign memory above 4GB.
