Probably going to RMA this week.
Tested both sticks at 310mhz overnight memtest and prime95(small ff), no errors.
Load stock values.
on saturday I tiedy to install windows with both dimms, bsod during install.
try one dimm, bsod again.
try other, installs fine.
put both dimms in, windows loads and works, test games...some crashes/bsod
remove the bad dimm that bsod while installing windows...games still reboot.
try bad dimm, 9 of 10 bootups bsod right before desktop loads with different messages.
to me this has to be a bad pair. both sticks should be able to load windows by themselves.
ps-used orange dimms when i had both gskill sticks in, yellow dimm with one stick.
also, booted and played games fine with 512mb corsair xms pc2700 ram.
im just waiting for a gskill tech to ensure me that its gotta be rma'd.
thanks
with stock settings prime95 failed after 40mins with blend test(lots of ram tested).
