I also got a 6pin PCIe to 8 pin EPS adapter from those guys too, since I'll need another one and won't be putting a graphics card in this one sammy anymore - all after I kill and bring that board back to life from modding the x8 PCIe slot :ROTF:
that board must hate you...Quote:

That's what I aim to find out :up:

I'll check my stock when I get home I have some 1gb sticks
Well.... I know but I just wanna try at least :p:Quote:

Eller
Then keep them all on at all times. :DQuote:

try slots #2 and 4 with the slot closest to the PSU connector being #1Quote:
