I adjusted voltage and timings and even tRFC like suggested. They wouldn't pass. I RMA'd the RAM and the MB and got new of each. It was decided that the 2Gb sticks were not compatible with the Rampage.

I order some G.Skill DDR2 1066. They will not pass Memtest86 either. WTF?

Unfortunately, it's starting to look like the common denominator is me.

Am I running the right program -Memtest86 v3.4? Is it possible that something is wrong with the bootable CD?
try prime95 on blend that really works the memory & what O/S are u useing ? & did you D/L the newest driver for the Intel X48 chipset (it's on an earlier post) as the R/F CD is out dated on all the drivers & as is the Intel download site , for some reason Intel hasn't updated their own site but i had a problem with the 2nd mobo till i had all the drivers in correctly
