Hello!!
Platform: 5820K, GA-X99-UD5, G.Skills Ripjaws4 (F4-2666C15Q-16GRR)
Since I bought my components, I got some issues with my RAM memory - a crazy loop most of the times when powering on the computer - it appears to be on for 5 seconds and then when reaches debug code 50 shuts itself down for 1-2 seconds and then alone turns itself on - and it could continue like this infinitely until I am powering it off from the PSU or by holding the power button... It's like o lottery!
I even tried to run the mobo on a carton box, no usb-s, no drives, cmos resets, all sticks in the right place, no bent pins, bios updates, different graphics card... The same issue! Have even sent the motherboard to Gigabyte Nordic to warranty - but they told me that it works fine and sent it back!
Then a friend bought an almost identical platform - except for the RAM (Corsair Vengence 2666MHz): well, with his RAM my system works fine while my RAM, on his motherboard (identical with mine) gives his the same problem with restarts and the debug code 50...

Now, my questions:
1) Any known incompatibility issues between this RAM series and the GA-X99-UD5 (rev 1.0)?
2) Am i supposed to configure something in bios to make it work?! I mention that my friend's RAM worked for him directly, without any bios updates or changes.
3) Is it malfunctioning and I should send it back to retailer?
Thanks a lot for support!
