I've got an Asus P5N-E SLI running with a new set of 2x1gb OCZ 8500 SLI memory.
I've set the timings to 5-5-5-15-2T and 2.1v
I was having some stability issues and was never able to run at the speeds its rated for. Curious if it was a mobo or ram issue I decided to run memtest at 800mhz speeds.
-When running both sticks I get loads of errors.
-When running stick "a" in the black slot on the board it passed
-when running stick "b" in the black slot on the board it fails horribly
-when running stick "a" in the yellow slot it passes
-when running stick "b" in the yellow slot it gives a long continuous post beep and never makes it to memtest
So I'm thinking I have one bad stick out of the set. I'm wondering if anybody can point me in the direction of the ocz rma process and give me a time estimate for getting a new set?
