I recently purchased 2 kits of F2-8500CL5D-4GBPI-B for a total of 8GB.
Im having issues getting the RAM to run at 1066 with all 4 slots filled.
My board is a DFI Dark x48 T2RS
The settings i am trying for are 400 FSB (DRAM strap 400/1066)
I have tried running only 2 sticks and it seems to run just fine.
ATM, Im running a 333/800 strap and 400 FSB, giving me 960mhz on the RAM and its just fine.
With all 4 sticks, 400 FSB, and DRAM strap at 400/1066 it usually hangs at boot forcing a CMOS reload.
I have tried with NB core at 1.4 even and no go.
on occasion it will continue to boot, but blue screens shortly after the desktop shows.
I think there must be a memory setting somewhere i do not have adjusted correct, or a performance lvl of some form. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
((edit: If it matters , I am also running a Intel Q9650 Quad. so 3.6Ghz at 400FSB and voltage for RAM is set at 2.11))
