Hello,
for quite some time now I have been running my System (Asus P9X79 Pro, i7 3930K) with one 16 GiB Kit (4 modules) of the PC3-17066U CL9 Ares series.
With one Kit my system is absolutely stable and both Prime95 and Memtest+ give no errors at all.
Recently I decided to throw in another bunch of those Ares modules as there are still 4 DIMMs left, and that was where the trouble started...
While Memtest+ is still okay, Prime95 nearly immediately throws errors over and over when running in Blend (RAM stress) mode.
I also checked around the forums to see if other people have similar problems and stumbled over this thread: http://gskill.us/forum/showpost.php?...3&postcount=23
I tried increasing VCCSA in small steps to 1.25V but it still throws errors in Prime95.
Btw.: Both Kits run stable when they are installed alone. I also want to run 8 DIMMs @2133 Mhz (8 DIMMs @1600 Mhz is also stable)
Strange enough sometimes less RAM than installed is recognized by the UEFI BIOS (and windows of course...) when all 8 DIMMs are installed.
Also sometimes I get DRAM SPD Info errors (via the Asus DRAM SPD INFO tool - part of the UEFI - to read the SPD data) on random DIMMs.
Any help/suggestions would be gladly appreciated.
Thank you all for taking you time reading this.
(Also I want to apologize if I failed to express myself clearly as English is not my native language.)
