So, I have an old 775 socket system, but it was cutting edge and seems should be close enough to work. Never had an issue before using faster RAM on a motherboard.
Pegatron IPMEL-BRM (Q43) *forgot to mention XMP is supported.
Q9400 C2D Quad
R7 260
2X2GB DDR3 1066
Trying to add:
Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL
Just dropping the Ripjaws into the open slots resulted in a long beep and 2 short beeps. I see some Q43 boards would only support 4 banks, which wouldn't be great, since I'd like to use all 4 slots, but I tried only loading one Ripjaws DIMM and still just get a long beep and 2 short beeps. Existing RAM works fine.
What next?
Thanks,
Dan
