Yes, send them in to try a new kit. XMP should work just fine.
Also, take a look at the missing capacity sticky for possible causes.
Thank you

I have similar or maybe the same problem. When my new machine boots system sometimes but usually does not recognize all the RAM. PI series DDR3 6-8-6-20. If I lower the timings it will recognize all the ram but with XMP profile most of the time only 4 GB. Do I need to return ram?

Simply enable the XMP profile. If you still have problems, send the memory in for new replacements.

ASUS Rampage 3 Formula w/ F3-12800CL9T-6GBNQ Only shows 6GB sometimes
Hi All,
Having some of the same issues that others are having with 2, 4, and 6GB showing up after a cold boot with 6gb installed. I started my build with a GB x58 udr3 MB that I ended up having to RMA. I had the same issue with the memory being consistently recognized by the bios or Win 7 64 bit on that board.
Tried some of the troubleshooting tips I picked up on the board, but nothing seems to stick after a cold boot or even sometimes a warm boot.
Starting to wonder if it is really the timings/voltage or faulty ram.
Does anyone have this combination of Asus MB and Gskill running successfully? If so, please post your bios settings- Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have done several builds and this one has been the most expensive/challenging to work the bugs out.
Thanks! Dave
