Anyone have a problem getting 4gbs of RAM stable on this board without memtest errors? It will run Orthos all day long with no problem, but memtest errors soon as I use 4GB, all sticks pass with flying colors, the board itself just doesnt seem to like 4gb, or memtest has a problem with this chipset.
did you enable the memory remap as memtest could of been testing the wrong areas in memory map ?Originally Posted by ChaosMinionX
Also loosen sub timings don't use AUTO and raise vdimm, NB volts and if you have high end video cards try raising SB volts.. just general steps I'd do.. haven't tested 4GB yet on this board

I'm testing 8 gig with no issues yet.
Well after I got done being lazy messing with voltages and trying to get it right, I finally decided to individually test each stick at stock settings....turns out I have 1 defective stick, the other 3 memtest all day long without a hitch...I think this stick is a remnant of the Bad Axe 2 eating my ram. This will be the 5th stick fallen victim to the BX2 of this make (6400C3DF). That damn 3rd slot I bet, anyways I will get this sorted out, other than that everything is working good now.
Thanks for the input
EDIT: And I never use AUTO for anything, cept if I knew what the voltage references were supposed to be set at, I would haha and that overvolt control thing in the BIOS, anyways I got some findings on my ram I will post with this board.
