I recently purchased F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL to go along with my MSI 785GM-P45 motherboard. I am trying to get the RAM to work in dual channel mode with my 4GB DIMM in slot 1 and the other in slot 2 as instructed in the motherboard manual, but in this configuration I am always getting numerous errors with memtest86 v4.0.
If I use each DIMM on its own in slot 1 for a total of 4GB everything works well. I can run multiple runs of memtest86 without a single error, but attempting to pair the sticks has just produced errors.
I have tried:
-putting the DIMMs in slot1/slot2
-putting the DIMMs in slot3/slot4
-manually specified the tCL 8 - tRCD 8 - tRP 8 in the BIOS with a command rate of 2T (tRAS only has an auto option)
I am lost as to what to try next. Am I correct in assuming it's not the RAM since each stick passes memtest86 on its own?
Thank you for any ideas you might have!
