I have been having an issue since I bought this board. I am currently RMAing my Asus Maximus III Formula Motherboard, but I just want people to be aware of this problem as it might be an incompatibility issue with the Ripjaw G Skill F3-12800CL9-2GBRL and Asus Boards in general.
I have looked at the sticky in regards to voltage settings and stress to the motherboard with an aftermarket heatsink.
I have inspected the CPU socket, everything is fine.
I have reseated my Heatsink numerous times, no change.
I have used every combination of voltages from 1.5-1.66V DRAM and 1.25-1.45Vtt/IMC and Vcore 1.2-1.55V.
Ok, so here is the issue:
My board properly displays 8GB of Ram regardless of the voltages at any Bclk 199 or below. As soon as I try to go above 199, I only show 4GB.
All of the Dimms show up in CPUz as well as Everest or any other hardware monitor, but Core temp/Windows/Everest only display 4GB Total being used.
I see countless issues across the net concerning these and I am also concerned that my 1600s are showing up as 1333 in Everest.
If a Gskill Rep. could contact me I would appreciate it, because I am not looking forward to Asus charging me back for a $250 dollar motherboard because of funky RAM.
I am using a i7 860
