How can I get total physical memory using Windows cmd

Question

I inquired typeperf counters and instances, but couldn't find anything about the total memory. I only found

    \Memory\Availble Bytes
    \Memory\Cache Bytes
    \Process\Private Bytes
    \Process\Working Set

and adding any combination of them didn't match the total memory in task manager.

I also tried

    systeminfo | findstr /C:"Total Physical Memory"

but this only worked in english mode(chcp 437). I am not an American and making program for various countries.. and above all, this takes too long time.

Please, anyone know good idea to get total memory in Windows with only cmd? Or please explain me the relation of memories so that I can calculate the total memory from typeperf queries..
