Sav, which slots do you put memory in the blue or the black ones? I just read a review of the memory I got (see sig): http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/mem...800-4gb_2.html in which they write: "these modules will only work in black DIMM slots on ASUS mainboards". I put my sticks in the blue A1, B1 slots so I will test the black slots when I get back to work. I will give an update to this ASAP.
