I currently have the F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL (2 x 4GB kit) installed and running stable.
Had to RMA 1 stick that went bad and received a replacement that changed the Latency settings from 9-9-9-24-2N to 9-9-9-28 for some reason. Manually reset the 28 to 24 in the Bios. All seems well for the time being. I recently swapped out the previous Graphics card, EVGA GTX460 SE for a Sapphire Radeon HD 6870 GDDR5 1GB card due to Driver issues with the latest NVidia release 285.62. I figured since I was doing some major component changes, why not bump the Ram Up to full capacity as well.
I recently Purchased the G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9Q-16GBZL to go with this Latest build using the Newegg memory configuration feature. My primary concern is that the Previous memory is Dual Channel DDR3, as opposed to the Quad Channel Z series. Is this going to present a problem, or do I just follow the previous stickies concerning manual settings for ASUS motherboards running AMD Phenom II Quad CPU's ?
The 16GB kit is due to arrive in a few days, so any suggestions that help me avoid toasting my system will be appreciated.
