3 ch RAM GSKILL talk to me..
I searched the forum and there was no threads that included both keywords.
This is a new build. Took me a while to isolate the problem. Many people have the same problem searching google but there was no clear solution.
GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R
G.SKILL 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 F3-10666CL7T-6GBPK Triple channel
i7-950
When computer has all 3 modules, the computer constantly BSOD with memory related errors (MEMORY_MANAGEMENT / NOT_EQUAL..) all pointing to ntoskrnl.exe . After around 20-30 bsods (happen a few seconds/minutes into login, or before) the computer runs fine! The bsod's keep happening every time there is a long period after a shutdown and then after 20-30 bsod it runs perfect.
So after the computer has been shut down overnight, I try using 1 RAM module.. No problems. I interchange all of them and they are all good. Memtest86 shows no errors (tried when there was 3 modules installed)
What's wrong?
I'm using the 1-3-5 DDR3 slots as requested.
Bios:
XMP profile everything checks out but still same memory related errors.
QPI is 1.175v
By changing the DRAM voltage to 1.640v ( from 1.5v) and it kinda fixes the problem. The computer is still unstable, but not as unstable as before.
I am sure this is BIOS setting related, I think no enough voltage to the memory causing bsod.
