I am hoping you can help me with a memory upgrade challenge I am facing.
I have an Asus P5Q-WS and an X9650 CPU.
Until last week I had 8 GB of RAM working fine (Patriot brand) 4*2 GB.
As I use quite a lot of virtual machines I decided to upgrade the RAM for this machine and the best available RAM I could find was the F2-6400CL5Q -16GBPQ.
sadly enough, it does not seem to work with my board.
When I put in all 4 slots, the computer starts, all the fans spin, harddisks start to spin, but I don't get to post.
When I put in 2*4 the system boots and recognises 8GB of RAM.
these works in all possible combinations (different ram in different dual slots).
I have tried boosting RAM voltage to 1.92, NB voltage to 1.44, specified the RAM specifications, ... but so far unsuccessful.
Does anyone have an idea what the best settings would be for this RAM-MB combination?
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
