What model of the 1600 sticks do you have? Have you set the timings and DRAM voltage manually to stock settings? What OS are you running?

You'll need to set the memory frequency, timings, and voltage in your BIOS. Let us know the specific memory package you purchased so we can give the specs, but it should be included in your memory package. Simply set everything to the specified settings and everything should be running smoothly.

Go into your BIOS and look for the Advanced tab. Scroll down and you will see Hyper Transport Configuration. Change HT Over Voltage to 1.4000V.

Then for Memory Timing and Voltage,

Change Memory Clock Mode to Manual. Memclock Value should be set at 800MHz. DRAM Timing Mode to Both. tCL 9 - tRCD 9 - tRP 9 - tRAS 24 Everything else can be AUTO for now.

Then for Memory Over Voltage, set that to 1.6000V

Save and exit and your computer should be running smoothly.

Keep us posted on the results.
