Hello all,
Been tinkering with OCing and working to tweak my system for a while and now that I have finally put it together, decided to go whole-assed and see what this set-up can do.
I have checked out this forum for ideas and tips, searching for the set-up closest to mine. I have plenty of notes and am going to start today. Wish me luck!!
I do have one question.....Windows reports 24Gb of RAM with only 16 usable. I admit I did buy the RAM as 16Gb packages. Does this make a difference? Should I have looked for a 32Gb set instead. CPU-Z does report 32....8 per slot....all the same. I used 3dMark as a benchmark. One pass showed 32Gb and after I restored my CMOS back to default it would not show any RAM. I am hoping that tweaking will correct this, but if not, I'll keep looking.
Thanks for reading.
