    your mem cant run 1600 999? what kind of rating is that anyways? 1600 999 is teribly slow...
    so your running 4 2gb modules, right? how about running 3x2gb, maybe that works? might be a bios problem since the bios remapps the memory address space...
    might be worth giving a try, and i doubt you need more than 6gb... but 1600 999? damn thats terrible... isnt 1200 777 faster than 1600 999?

    if you shoot me a pm with all your settings ill see if i can help you get it stable at higher speeds
    I'll PM you shortly as soon as I've fetched all BIOS settings. My modules are 1 GB modules. The TW and 2G in Corsair's article codes refers to a twin kit of a total of 2 GB. So I wouldn't like to run on only 3 GB.

    According to Everest 5.01, I am getting a read throughput of roughly 14 GB opn 7-7-7-20/1200 but up to 17 or 18 at 9-9-9-24/1600. The question is indeed if that would reflect in a higher system performance....

    1600 9-9-9-24 is the XMP profile's settings stored in the modules, but they run fine at 8-8-8-20/1600 too, except for certainly still having those reboot issues.

    What I mean by moving one memory module is that the manual states that for a four module configuration one should use slots A1-A2-B2-C2. '2' are the orange slots, and A1 would be the black one closest to the CPU socket.

    When it comes to bus termination, and the RAM modules' on-die termination, wouldn't it make more sense to have the fourth module in the last of the black slots? To terminate the signals at the end of the copper traces.
